Antonio Strings

Welcome to Antonio Strings, nestled in the heart of Christchurch since 2013 - a haven for music enthusiasts and virtuosos alike. Our passion for musical instruments transcends beyond merely selling or repairing them; it's about nurturing the soulful connection between the artist and their instrument. Step into our welcoming space, where the scent of freshly polished wood, the soft hum of fine-tuning strings, and the warmth of our team will envelop you. Here, we are more than just a retailer or dealer; we are your partners in the journey to unleash the symphony within. Our story began with a shared love for music and a desire to bring quality instruments to discerning musicians. We specialize in violins, violas, cellos, and bows, offering an extensive collection that caters to both beginners and seasoned artists. But we don't just sell instruments; we offer the promise of musical growth and personal expression with each purchase. Beyond sales, our heart beats for repair and restoration. Our skilled craftsmen bring new life to worn-out bows, restore the luster to scratched violins, and breathe fresh vibrancy into aged cellos. We understand the emotional bond between a musician and their instrument, and we strive to ensure that this connection remains strong, even through repairs or restorations. Our commitment extends further with appraisals. Whether you're looking to insure, sell, or simply understand the value of your cherished instrument, our expert appraisers are here to provide accurate and insightful assessments. We believe that every instrument has a story worth telling, and we take pride in helping our clients appreciate their own musical treasures. In Antonio Strings, you'll find more than just a store - you'll discover a community that celebrates the power of music, cherishes traditional craftsmanship, and values the unique bond between artist and instrument. So, whether you're picking up your first bow or adding to an already extensive collection, join us in Christchurch where music is more than just sound - it's a story waiting to be told.
