Heart-Shaped Model Ebony Pegs for Violin

General Description of the Heart-Shaped Model Ebony Pegs for Violin

The heart-shaped model ebony pegs for violin combine elegance, durability, and precise adjustment, making them a classic choice in lutherie. Made from high-density ebony, they offer exceptional wear resistance and secure grip, ensuring stable and progressive tuning for the instrument.

The heart-shaped model, with its distinctive head design, provides a comfortable grip and a refined aesthetic, emphasizing the artisanal tradition of violin making. Their smooth surface and precise fit ensure uniform rotation, preventing slipping or unwanted sticking.

Ebony pegs are particularly valued in lutherie due to the natural properties of the wood. Their high oil content helps them retain moisture, which reduces friction in the pegbox and improves sliding, decreasing the need for frequent maintenance.

These pegs are unfinished, requiring specialized tools such as a peg shaper and reamer for proper installation in the pegbox. Additionally, the shaft has a wider diameter, allowing for adaptation in repair and replacement work, ensuring a perfect fit for the instrument.

Thanks to the density and stability of ebony, these pegs provide reliability and a polished finish, making them an excellent choice for luthiers and violinists seeking precision, durability, and a traditional design for their instrument.
