Medieval Music Instruments can be Modern

Welcome! please come in

I’m glad to see you in our workshop. My name is Svyatoslav Osipov and I am its founder and an ideological inspirer. We produce unique musical instruments such as a hurdy gurdy and a nyckelharpa and we gradually increase a range of our assortment.

How did it start?
Once, as many beginner musicians, I played the guitar. Nevertheless, that was not enough for me. So I decided to try something new and unusual. That turned out to be the Hurdy Gurdy. as I am not only a musician, but an engineer, I had an idea to create this such an unusual instrument myself. When I finished my first hurdy gurdy, it seemed to be quite good, but it was not perfect. Then I made the second one, the third one and so on. Still we have been improving our quality every time to make a perfect one.

Then, I met my wife and found assistants, now we are a whole team. Together we always look for new, better solutions and expand the range of assortment.

For more than five years, we have been studying, creating and improving musical instruments.

We use the high-precision machines – CNC Router, laser cutter, etc. allows to achieve the optimal design of the instrument for the perfect sound, as well as to create an exquisite unique design. We strive for beauty in everything, both sound and appearance.
Modern materials are more stable than traditional ones and less capricious in care. Thanks to them, our instruments are more resistant to changes in temperature, humidity and other vagaries of nature factors.

Whether you are engaged in concert activities, or going to festivals, or playing at home like a hobby, the design and materials of our hurdy gurdies and nickelharps will allow you to feel as comfortable as possible.
