What a sound ! It’s pure velvet, a true flugelhorn tone.
Absolutely amazing, with a perfect playing feel.
I love it.
Great craftsmanship — bravo and thank you.”

“The Belmondo is a joy to play, offering much greater ease than my previous mouthpiece.
The sound is very round, slightly mellow.
An excellent mouthpiece, full of great qualities.”

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.

It will then be sent to our silversmith – aurifier. Upon receipt of this, its deadline for carrying out its tackle varies between 10 and 15 days. We chose to collaborate with this plater for the very high quality of his work. Like us, he works each piece by hand (polishing / plating / brightening). After his work, he sends the mouthpiece back to us and we in turn send it to you. For this finest of work and for all these short back and forth, it takes an average of 4 weeks between ordering and expedition.
