In 2012 I started making violins. A hobby became a passion and I’ve been building ever since. I have made several violins, violas, cellos, a viola da gamba and some more exotic instruments such as 5-string cellos and a 6-string violin. I like to imagine the perfect instrument for the customer, together with the customer. It takes time to make an instrument, a few months for the smaller ones and at least 6 months for a cello.

I have a few violins and violas which you can play on, as examples. You can take an instrument home to try. 

If you are interested in a handmade instrument, please send an e-mail to info@vioolbouwyadava.nl. My other job is as a GP, so I don’t list my phone number on the website. I will answer the email and we can discuss your wishes.

As a guideline, the prices are:

violin 2000 euros

viola 2500 euros

cello 5000 euros

I do not restore precious instruments and I do not buy instruments.
