ABOUT ME & MY WORK

....."instruments that are as individual and unique as the musicians".....

 

As from 2021 Stepan has been acknowledged as a Master Artisan by the 

Michelangelo Foundation meeting all 11 criteria for excellence in craftsmanship. 

"THE FOUNDATION / CRITERIA FOR EXCELLENCE

The master artisans we support all have one thing in common – they represent excellence in their field." 

Worldwide Reputation 

Graduate of the Newark School of Violin Making in 1986, Stepan has worked internationally

including the United Kingdom, Japan, Belgium and Greece.

Now based in Cyprus he has established a high reputation with clients all over the world. 

With 40 years of experience he can work using various styles and techniques 

to successfully recreate a variety of models based on the classical Italian makers.

"I focus on perfection and never compromise any aspects in making a violin; for example,

  •  selecting the tonewood 

  • accuracy of the workmanship

  •  ingredients of the varnish

  • the final set up, etc.

With each instrument I make my aim is to create something exceptional.

Trusting professionals and discerning musicians appreciate my instruments for their

tone and beauty;

instruments that meet the highest demands and standards."
