About

„I wake up, drink a cup of coffee and unlock the doors to the workshop. The fragranceof essential oils fills my nostrils. My work is waiting for me. With gratitude I embark on the most wonderful daily activity I can imagine: take 400 grams of wood to create a miracle of sound, capable of warming the hearts of those who play it, and of all those who listen.“
