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.

    The Cornet mouthpiece 170 B (Massive) is absolutely fantastic. The edge is very comfortable. The key despite the depth, extremely precise and flexibility is impressive .. I keep it!

  2. A. Schneggenburger

    After testing the mouthpieces a week I’m very glad to order one more mouthpiece.
    Best results were on the 170B – massive. I like the bright sound and the ultra-precise attack. All notes are very stable, clear and the intonation holds through the full register extraordinary good. In the upper register above C”’ it plays very open compared to all my other mouthpieces.

    That’s the reason, why I’ll order this one over your store. 🙂

  3. Philippe L.

    Many thanks to Dimitri for his work, expertise, and professionalism! My three mouthpieces — the 171C, the 170B (cornet), and the 171D (piccolo) — are truly outstanding!”
