These instruments combine the finest, aged European woods, hand carved construction by the most experienced European lutherie, and the careful, expert antiquing to present an instrument that is breathtaking both tonally and visually.  Handmade for StringWorks in a small master workshop in Budapest, Hungary, the quality of the aged wood and tremendous execution of the varnish antiquing makes these affordable instruments nearly indistinguishable from instruments of 150-200 years old.
