Why choose a restoration violin?

Restoring a violin is a wonderful way to breathe new life into a historic instrument. Violins for restoration are often special instruments with a rich history and unique sound possibilities. But why would you choose a restoration project instead of a new instrument? In this blog we discuss the value and benefits of a restoration violin.

1. The charm of a historical instrument

Old violins often have a deeper, more mature sound that has evolved over time, creating a sound that is hard to match for modern instruments.

2. Restoration offers a unique character

• Each restored instrument has its own story and personality .

• A successful restoration preserves the authentic sound and improves playability.

• Old violins often have a unique construction style and finish that is rare in today's mass production.

3. Sustainability and craftsmanship

By having a violin restored, you help preserve lasting craftsmanship . Many historic violins are handcrafted by master violin makers, and restoration ensures that these instruments will continue to sound for generations.
