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.

About A.Stradivari

Antonio Stradivari is probably the most famous of the Italian masters of Cremona. Born in 1644 little is known about his background and he may have started as a carpenter but his first datable instrument is from 1666. He had an extraordinary and successful career for the time period spanning seven decades in which he, with the help from his sons, produced nearly a thousands instruments. looking at how his style of making evolved over the years you get a sense of how methodical and innovative he was. Thanks to early instrument collector and expert count Cozio we also have a vast collection of the tools and templates preserved to this day. This gives us a unique insight into his methodology and craftsmanship.
