Extra High (35mm) Handmade Brandt Violin Chinrest in Rosewood by Figaro Importers

The Brandt is a side mounted chinrest favored for its asymmetrical shape that extends over the tailpiece that is comfortable for many players and is favored by many violinists who cannot get comfortable with other models. It has a medium deep cup that angles down at the far left. This extra high model height is 35 mm at the highest point. Figaro fine fittings are made only from the best sourced materials and finished by hand by craftsmen in a family owned business. The quarter sawn rosewood(Dalbergia Latifolia), is harvested in north east India. It is aged in the log for a minimum of two years. Only large logs with the straightest grain are selected for our fittings. The cork (Quercus suber) is the finest quality, fitted precisely to minimize acoustic interference and to maximize stability. The chrome fittings are all individually fitted by hand and are straight and thread easily. There are no chinrests available that are superior!
