Strings handmade
since 1798.

The atelier’s own line: “Strings handmade in Germany since 1798”, and “the byword for a sound which is both beautiful and reliable.” Each individual string in the line has been meticulously crafted to provide musicians with exceptional tonal variety.

Three core material types sit behind the catalogue: gut, synthetic, and steel. The atelier also produces rosins designed specifically for use with its strings.
