BERDANI English Violin Fittings Set
Tailpiece, pegs, chinrest and endpin made from Berdani's Dark Boxwood
Handcrafted by master luthier Daniel Hiller
The BERDANI English violin fittings set combines tailpiece, pegs, chinrest and endpin into a harmoniously matched setup for demanding musicians and instruments. The set combines classical design with precise craftsmanship and carefully selected natural materials.
All components are handcrafted by master luthier Daniel Hiller and are perfectly matched both functionally and visually. Thanks to their low weight and balanced proportions, the fittings support the natural vibration of the violin and enable a clear, projecting tonal development.
Design, Ergonomics & Sound Character
The English design is characterized by clean lines, precise contours and an elegant classical appearance. The fittings integrate harmoniously with both historical and modern instruments while supporting optimal playability.
Material – Berdani´s Dark Boxwood
The entire fittings set is made from Berdani´s Dark Boxwood, a thermally treated boxwood with a warm dark brown color. The coloration is created exclusively through heat treatment without stains, dyes or chemical additives.
This material combines several important properties:
- particularly low weight for free vibration of the instrument
- high stability with natural elasticity
- pleasant, warm surface without chemical coatings
- harmonious visual match for classical instruments
All surfaces are finely sanded with pure linseed oil and then polished with natural wax. This creates a natural breathable surface that protects the wood and preserves its acoustic properties.
The packaging consists exclusively of sustainable recycled materials.
