Our workshop offers a full repair, restoration and maintenance service for violins, violas and cellos. We adjust and set up every instrument to meet the specific requirements of each musician and optimise its sound.
We believe in maintaining a relationship of trust and dialogue with the musician, based on listening, transparency and availability. Every restoration begins with a discussion to determine the right approach, followed by a free, no-obligation quotation.
Restoring a violin, viola or cello is an art requiring precision, experience and sensitivity. Good repair or restoration should show no visible traces and should not alter the tone of the instrument. Our many years of experience have allowed us to work on both modern and antique instruments, whether affected by the deterioration of time or accidental damage.
Our working philosophy comes from traditional, extensive training, based on the historic apprentice model – the student learns alongside the master until ready to work independently. I was fortunate enough to train under this concept, and to receive the guidance and generosity of my luthier teacher, Laurent Lopez, whose advice is a fundamental part of my methods.
