This Baroque guitar is a small fragment of history that comes back to life in the musician’s hands. Inspired by the 1690 model of Jean Voboam, it preserves that aristocratic elegance capable of evoking Parisian salons, court dances, and an era when sound was intimate, precious, made to enchant rather than to amaze.

The sculpted vaulted back, the ebony ornaments, and the red spruce soundboard tell of an attention to detail that goes beyond simple craftsmanship: here, lutherie becomes visual poetry.
The touch on the Nylgut strings responds with a soft, ancient, luminous voice that fills the space without invading it — a voice that does not shout, but conquers.

It is an instrument that invites delicacy, care, and depth. An ideal companion for those who wish to rediscover Baroque musicality in its most authentic and sensual form.
