Extra High (44 or 50 mm) Flesch Violin Chinrest in Himalayan Boxwood by Figaro Importers

The Flesch Flat is a high center mounted chinrest favored for its comfort that assists many more petite players, with its gently rounded edge and shallow cup.  Cup height in the center of the edge that meets the chin is 44  or 50 mm compared to the standard height of 30 mm, depending on the option you choose.

Figaro fine fittings are made only from the best sourced materials and finished by hand by craftsmen in a family owned business. Our fittings are carved precisely to maximize acoustic performance, strength, and durability.

The Boxwood (Buxus sempervirens) is harvested in the foothills of the Himalayas. It is originally off-white and air aged to assure stability. After sectioning into quarter-sawn boards, it is carved and then stained a tasteful orange-brown.  The cork (Quercus suber) is the finest quality, fitted precisely to minimize acoustic interference and to maximize stability. The chrome fittings are all individually fitted by hand and are straight and thread easily. There are no chinrests available that are superior!
