The saxhorn is called “ALTO HORN” in the USA (Bach / Yamaha), “TENOR HORN” in the Anglo-Saxon countries (Alliance / Denis Wick), “ALTHORN” or “Eb Horn” in Germany.
It is called “Pichotte” in France. We will use the term “Saxhorn” to avoid confusion.

A layer of silver is deposited on the brass.
Thanks to its good thermal conductivity, silver provides a smooth and comfortable feel on the lips.
We have chosen an exceptional plating with a thick layer of silver – 20 µm, ensuring very high quality and long-term durability.
A layer of pure 24-carat gold is deposited over the silver plating.
Thanks to its high thermal conductivity, gold provides a soft and warm sensation on the lips.
We have chosen an excellence plating in pure 24-carat gold, the only metal that does not oxidize over time.

Francois –
I’ve received the three piccolo mouthpieces.
Excellent feel, no fatigue even after a long rehearsal.
Coming from the trumpet, the 178 suits me perfectly, even if the low register still requires a bit more work
Yvan –
I am playing the 178 and it’s just perfect for me.
No problem blending with the band at all, even though it’s the smallest piece.
Very comfortable and easy to play
Michel Lemerre –
Well, I was stunned (as the Venus de Milo would say)!
When opening the package I just received, I didn’t feel like I was discovering a mouthpiece, but rather a precious jewel in its case.
I’ve opened plenty of packages containing mouthpieces, but never one like this.
Your presentation is truly refined.
I don’t know if your competitors do the same, but I’ve never seen such class.
My most sincere congratulations.
And from now on, if I ever need another mouthpiece, I know exactly where to go.
