The Viola LUNA designed for serious students and emerging professionals who demand refined tone, superior craftsmanship, and artistic depth. Widely chosen by students preparing for arts middle schools, arts high schools, and university music programs, this model has supported countless successful admissions and performances.
Handcrafted using traditional Italian violin-making techniques, the Viola LUNA is built from premium Italian and Bosnian tonewoods naturally aged for over 20 years. After construction, each instrument is naturally air-dried at room temperature for a minimum of 24 months before varnishing, ensuring tonal maturity and eliminating the harsh edge often found in new instruments. The result is a viola with rich volume, clarity, and a beautifully refined sound unique to Italian and Bosnian wood.
Finished with a hand-applied natural brown spirit varnish in an antiqued style—imported from France and applied using traditional German Meister hand-brush varnishing techniques—the Viola LUNA rivals fine European instruments in both sound and craftsmanship.
Meticulously handcrafted and subjected to strict quality control using advanced scientific inspection equipment. Only instruments meeting the highest performance and stability standards are delivered to players.
