MY INSTRUMENTS
Inspired by the principles of classical lutherie and following traditional construction methods, I create my instruments. Paying utmost attention to even the smallest detail, I seek the perfect harmony between acoustics and aesthetics.
MY HISTORICAL BOWS
Each musical era requires a specific interpretative technique. Especially crafted for each period, I make my bows without compromises. Working in a historically informed manner, I base my bows on paintings and other sources that bring me closer to the sensibilities of those times.
RESTORATION AND REPAIR
From a simple gluing of a crack to a complete restoration, I always pay the utmost attention and care, with the constant goal of restoring the full warmth of the instrument.
