DESIGN

I design each instrument with great care according to the bourdon, the harmonics, the tone, and the playing qualities desired. A new bore is drawn up for each didgeridoo.

 

CHOICE OF WOOD

I use wood from Brittany. I use ash, cherry, hazel, elm, locust, chestnut, maple, and birch wood most frequently but also some rare tree species such as the yew, the holly, the hawthorn or the blackthorn…the choice of tree species brings the final touch to the didgeridoo's character.

 

WOOD TURNING

I make my didgeridoos by wood turning. Each 20-40 cm section goes through these steps :


profiling

boring

sanding

hollowing

 

FINISHING

After interlocking and gluing the sections, the didgeridoos are either painted and varnished or left untreated then coated with flax oil.

 

Each didgeridoo is unique,
signed at the mouthpiece

and numbered at the bell

 

My didgeridoos can be made-to-measure.

I will do my best to meet them.
