Violin Makers. Restorations. Appraisals. Bows
Over the years Ifshin has assembled a large personal collection of rare French bows and Italian violins. In 2008, Ifshin Violins designed, built and moved to a much larger studio in El Cerrito, California. In 1981, Ifshin had only two part-time employees. The workshop has grown and prospered, and today there is a staff of 16.
Ifshin Violins is recognized worldwide for the sale and restoration of fine string instruments and bows. Jay Ifshin is a member of the Appraisers Association of America and is frequently called upon to examine stringed instruments and bows. Jay Ifshin together with Haide Lin, Shop Foreman also produce the Jay Haide l'ancienne series of instruments.
Ifshin Violins offers an extensive selection of string instruments, including violins, violas and cellos. We offer a collection of modern Italian masters such as Scarampella, Bisiach, Pollastri and others. Our staff will help you find the right instrument that you are looking for.
