Ebony Flesch Chin Rest 4/4 Violin

Balanced. Comfortable. A classic choice.

The Ebony Flesch Chin Rest is one of the most popular designs for violinists seeking a natural, centred playing position. Sitting over the tailpiece, it allows the jaw to rest more centrally on the instrument—helping improve balance and reduce tension in the neck and shoulders.

Crafted from durable ebony, it offers a smooth, comfortable surface with a slightly shallow cup and rounded edges—providing secure support without feeling restrictive. The larger shape makes it especially suitable for players who prefer more contact area and stability.

Originally inspired by violinist Carl Flesch, this ergonomic design is well known for promoting a more relaxed posture and improved control, particularly for players with longer necks or those seeking a more centred setup.

Features:

• Ebony construction for durability and classic feel
• Centre-mount (over tailpiece) design for improved balance
• Larger surface area with a shallow, comfortable cup
• Smooth, rounded edges for secure jaw placement
• Fits standard 4/4 violins

A trusted, ergonomic chin rest—designed to make playing feel more natural, stable, and comfortable.
