About us



Studio Restauro - Arte Liutaria
Studio Restauro - Arte Liutaria is a violin workshop located in the beautiful Cremonese countryside, just 20 minutes by car outside of Cremona city center. The workshop is dedicated to providing our clients with the type of personalized service they deserve. The workshop has become a local meeting point for violinmakers and musicians and is commonly known as "Studio Restauro" or the "Restoration Studio".

We have moved
After having spent five years in the beautiful Palazzo Calciati in the city center of Cremona, we decided to move the workshop to an old farmhouse in the Cremonese countryside. We feel that we in this way will be able to serve our customers in a closer and more personal way.

Jens Gosta Johansson
Jens Gosta Johansson's many years of making and restoration insure that you will receive service which meets the highest standards of our craft. He learned his craft in Cremona and was head of the repair department at Kurosawa violin in Tokyo. Before opening Studio Restauro he restored fine violins at Hans Weisshaar Inc. in Los Angeles. Jens has a reputation for treating all clients honestly and fairly as they are always his top priority. Most importantly, he listens, and that means he will find solutions that are tailored to you and your instrument.
