Ervin Violins We are engaged in a quest for celestial sound on earth, taking the classical Italian violins as our guide. We restore and sell classical instruments, and we make new instruments and bows. Restoring classical instruments to physical and tonal health broadens our insight into their mysteries. Based on this insight, we craft new instruments and bows that reach toward the heights achieved by the classical masters.
