About Us

We are a small business but our mission is big – to revolutionise the sound of cellos! For a good 20 years or more string manufactures have rested on their laurels making effectively the same quality of cello strings. Very small improvements, maybe, but big changes, no. As cellists ourselves, we felt let down and not wanting to wait any longer decided to make our own strings! After several years of effort we think we have made the most fantastic strings and want to share our discovery with the world of cellists. We will only offer one series of cello string – one which will allow your instrument to sing like it has never been able to before.

Our aim at Rostanvo is to produce the finest strings possible for cello. These strings are for everyone, no matter what level, as they will offer the player an unparalleled sound at a fraction of the cost to upgrade to a better instrument. Our strings are handmade using the very best materials - no industrially manufactured string would be able to reproduce the quality of our handmade strings. The improvement in sound is so dramatic, so different to what you are currently playing on now, we firmly believe these strings mark a revolutionary stage in cello string making.

Become passionate about your instrument’s sound and try these exceptional strings.
