The woods that I use are mostly traditional. The quality of the selection and cutting accuracy is of crucial importance for the realization of an instrument of the highest possible standard. Those whom I use have stayed from 5 to 25 years in the workshop before they are used. Nonetheless, the aging potential of wood is like wine, and its aging in the shop will always be proportional and relative to its intrinsic qualities.Assemblage de la table
