Wood

We exclusively use a selection of high-quality tonewoods when crafting our instruments. The maple wood is most commonly of Balkan origin, but we also use locally sourced Italian maple, known as Oppio, which has a higher density and a distinctive greyish hue that lends itself well to antique-style varnishes.

Our spruce wood for the soundboard comes from Val di Fiemme, where a unique microclimate fosters a regular growth pattern, making it renowned worldwide for its use in instrument making.
