Wide range of chopsticks

We offer a wide range of mallets to meet the different needs and requirements of French and international percussionists. The collaboration and exchanges with the percussionists play an important role in our approach.

Innovation and perfection

Motivated by the expression of musical emotions, we always seek to innovate and improve the range of your tools while keeping tradition.
The manufacture of our chopsticks is carried out in an artisanal way and largely by hand. The materials used are chosen very carefully and go through multiple stages to become a perfect and balanced pair of chopsticks.

Sleeves

Bamboo handles for timpani are sorted by diameter, weight, knot position and color.
Rattan handles according to diameter, flexibility and color.
The wooden handles are cut rigorously in the direction of the fibers and sorted according to their flexibility and color.

Tailor-made baguette

You can choose the length and diameter of your chopsticks with bamboo or rattan handles.
Heads are made of a wide variety of materials, the important criteria are hardness, weight, elasticity (rebound).

If you do not find what you are looking for in our range of baguettes, we can make your custom chopsticks ; we will establish an estimate on request.

VIBRAWELL mallets are appreciated by a large number of percussionists, some of whom belong to major French or foreign orchestras (Europe, South America, Australia, Korea, USA Taiwan, etc.).
