I can make especially for you a copy of any original baroque, classical or romantical oboe which you wish!
For special request I can make Stanesby, Paulhahn, Grundmann and Floth oboes from Blackwood, Cocobolo wood or true Lignum vitae wood (guaiac) and I can make engrave keys from brass, bronze, sterling silver or even 24K gold.
I make also very exclusive models with mammoth-ivory rings and / or mammoth-ivory keys. Mammoth ivory from Siberia is a very high quality material; is very similar in colour and structure to elephant ivory. It is legal material of course and moreover – absolutely humanitarian.
Every set of an oboe includes: one bocal (connecting pipe) , softcase , a wooden cleaning rod and fingering chart. Instruments with mammoth ivory rings or keys have a stylish, natural velvet softcase.
Many professional oboists and amateurs are playing my instruments. From many countries – Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, England, France, Germany, Holland, Italy, Japan, Korea, New Zealand, Poland, Russia, Spain, USA.
Every instrument made in my studio I made entirely by hand, from rough working to precisely elaborated details, as it was done in the past centuries. To make my oboes I use the highest quality wood, dried in the natural way, seasoned for a period of a dozen years or more. Such a long period of seasoning is very favourable or even necessary to achieve the maximum of wood physical condition and , above all, the best quality of sound of the future instrument.
Every part of an oboe is made of same log of wood, what assures well balanced sound in all registers, physical stability and consistent, agreeable appearance of the instrument. Every oboe is impregnated exlusively with natural vegetal oils.
Some models are also stained, according to the ancient manner. I use only entirely natural, well-tried for centuries dyes of vegetal origin.
Then-from the length of the wood seasoning, through entirely hand work-out, to the choice of the materials used, the whole process is performed with special care for faithfull reconstruction of the baroque original, all in purpose that every instrument would meet requirements of today’s musician.
