The craft

Made to order

Every instrument is built by hand in the Kladno workshop — from quality acoustic wood, step by step, according to the customer's wishes and vision.

Commission

An instrument built only for you

“I would be glad to build an instrument especially for you. We will go through the whole building process together and fine-tune every detail to your exact measure.”

If you decide to order an instrument, write or call the maker and arrange the details — together you will choose the model, the varnish colour and the varnishing method.

The maker will send you photographs of the building process along the way, so you can follow your instrument from start to finish.

Copy of a historical instrument

A direct copy of a rare historical instrument, faithfully reproducing the varnish and the marks of use.
