Taken in 2010. Our Beijing workshop that takes care of violinmaking, wood storage and quality control. You can see the stacks of tonewood along the corridors. In good weather when there could be up to 2 weeks without rain, we bring the tonewoods out for air drying. Our tonewoods are never dried using artificial methods.

Since 1980

This is the time our violinmakers started making violins in Beijing. But it is only after 26 years in 2006 that we started to organise ourselves into 2 separate companies that we experience very high growth. In the past, our violinmakers  were in charge of violinmaking, sales, marketing and shipping. Now, our violinmakers find a lot of relief that they can concentrate on violinmaking, while another related company takes care of all sales and marketing. Our customers who were with us also find it even easier to communicate their requirements with us.

Our Shanghai warehouse stocks over 600 violins ready to be selected by our customers for immediate delivery. As a reseller, you can just request for a gallery link to see our latest inventory for selection.

Organisation

In our Shanghai sales office and warehouse of 2000 sqft, our team of 8 staff takes care of sales, marketing, customer service and logistics of getting the violin into your hands. We stock at any one time about 600 violins, of varying models, ready to be selected by our customers for shipping. Our quality control team in located in Beijing next to our workshops, inspecting every violin that is finished at our 2 workshops before they are sent to our Shanghai and sales office.

Our whiteboxes are made many months ahead of the actual violinmaking period. This allows the body of the violin to settle. This remove problems related to gluing or wood structure.

Consistency in Quality

Our focus on consistency in quality is perhaps why quality control makes up a large part of our team and daily routine. This ensures the quality of the instruments you receive from us is the same, batch after batch. If you’ve sold one of our violins, and your customer comes to you to ask you if you have another one, you can rest assure the next one you receive will be very close in quality. This consistency in quality has enabled many of our resellers to price their instruments accurately.

Teamwork

We are friends with many of our resellers. And we work very closely together to win projects like music school bids or government music programmes. This is actually one area that we think has a very big potential that many of our resellers have not fully explore. Just talk to us about the projects, and we’ll share with you how we’ve done it in the past. So combining your local market knowledge with our extensive supplier network in strings instruments, you can be assured you can find the most suitable violin to combine with the right quality case and bow.
