Rattan, wood or fiberglass?
Rattan is flexible, a little thicker, very robust, but comes from a plant that grows outside of Europe. Very suitable for playing on a vibraphone.
The wood is more rigid, quite thin, can be a little less resistant, but is a 100% local resource (maple or hornbeam).
Fiberglass is a mix of the two, stiff at the handle and more flexible as it tapers toward the head. A distinctive playing feel.

MANUFACTURING
Each wand is made entirely by hand in the Vibrawell workshop, located in Beaufortain (Savoie).
I use high quality natural materials, the sleeves are carefully balanced and the heads patiently hand sewn.
The wands are designed to last at least 10 years.
