Review
“Thank you very much, Dimitri, for your availability and kindness. This 169 C-H mouthpiece is beautiful and very comfortable to play — you almost forget it’s there.
The low register is round and full, and the high notes feel easier.
This profile gives a real sense of freedom to the lips.
I’m looking forward to using it intensively over several days to assess endurance, but for now, the feeling is extremely pleasant.
Congratulations on your craftsmanship.
Musically yours, Vincent Labenne

It is the feelings of the musicians that describe the mouthpieces in the best way.
A very big thank you in advance!

Silver plating
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.
Gold plating
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.
