Luthiers in London.

Home of the English bow-making tradition (Tubbs, Dodd, Hill) and a long-standing centre for restoration and dealing of fine string instruments.

Finding a luthier in London

Luthiers in London work on the full string family — violin, viola, cello and double bass. Typical work includes setup and soundpost adjustment, bridge fitting, crack and seam repair, fingerboard planing, neck resets, bow rehairing, valuation and appraisal, and new instruments built to commission.

Before booking a workshop in London, ask what the luthier specialises in: a maker who builds new instruments is not always the right person for an antique restoration, and bow work is its own trade. Every listing below shows the city, the instruments covered and direct contact details, so you can approach the right London workshop first time.
