Gliga Violins
Traditional Handmade. HIGH QUALITY EUROPEAN STRING INSTRUMENTS.
The History
Award winning violin maker, Mr Vasile Gliga, has been creating instruments since 1980 in his workshop in central Romania. Starting from the humble beginnings of working in a tiny workshop hand-crafting just two violins per month, his talent and passion for instrument making has been the driving factor, leading him to grow the now internationally recognised Gliga brand.
