What Sets Us Apart

Petko Petkov's commitment to tradition, precision, and artistry is present in every step — from tonewood selection to final tuning.

Traditional Craftsmanship

Each instrument is handcrafted using traditional Italian methods to achieve a unique acoustic character and outstanding beauty.

Seasoned Tonewoods

Petko Petkov uses carefully selected Balkan maple and spruce, renowned for their outstanding acoustic qualities. These tonewoods are naturally air-dried for at least 10 years, ensuring excellent stability and a rich, resonant tone.

Attention to Detail

From the tonewood selection to custom setups, every violin, viola or cello reflects Petko’s dedication to quality and performance.

Authentic Varnish

Each instrument is finished with a hand-applied varnish. The spirit varnish is personally prepared by the maker according to his own recipe, ensuring a distinctive look and contributing to the unique sound of the instrument.

Handcrafted with feeling, designed for expression – instruments that speak beyond notes.
