An eye trained beside the world's great violins

Our luthier built experience among the world-class violin collection at the Chimei Museum. The skill of adjusting an instrument comes half from training, and half from how many instruments — and how many players — have passed through your hands.

Working hands-on with a collection of that calibre is a rare education, and it gives us a clear sense of what a fine instrument should be.

How do you tell
if a violin is worth it?

Models are like varieties: anyone can buy the plans, but few can copy them perfectly. When you don't know violins, price is often the only thing left to compare — so we would rather take the time to show you how to look at one.

Wood

The wood sets an instrument's basic value. The material, grain and seasoning of the top and back are its foundation.

Varnish

Good varnish has layers. Held to the light, it shows depth — not a single flat coat of colour.

Workmanship

The scroll, the f-holes, the corners, the arching of the top and back — whether the details are fine shows at a glance.

We hope every student who plays can have a good instrument. There is no need to chase imports blindly — go to the source, and the quality is just as good.
