Violins, violas and cellos are one of the major passions in my life. I hope you will enjoy browsing through my extensive catalogue. Each instrument has been specially hand-picked for its quality and tone. Please let me know if you don't see what you are looking for, as I am very likely to be able to source your dream instrument through my network of contacts - be it a beginner's instrument or a Strad!
Violin by Gragnani
Made of beautiful material, this instrument is based on a long period Strad model. It has an exceptionally big tone.
Viola by Guadagnini
This fine viola was made in Milan in 1757. Measuring 41.3cm this viola was probably reduced in size at some stage then re instated by Hills in the Forties. the Final work is of a high standard and this viola is a soloist piece! HUGE TONE and quality.
Violin by Vuillaume
An outstanding concert violin by this great Parisian maker. Previously owned by the winner of the Carl Flesch violin copetition, this great Stradivari copy (1850/60) is in excellent condition with a great tone suitable for the highest level of performer. W.E. Hill & Sons certificate.
