The Affogato Series name is inspired from the Italian dessert—espresso poured over vanilla ice cream—because the wood mirrors that same striking contrast. These tops feature rich, coffee-like streaks flowing into creamy, pale spruce. The effect is both natural and indulgent, evoking warmth and elegance in every set.
Each piece in this series is one-of-a-kind, where earthy browns mingle with soft whites to create a tonewood canvas that feels both refined and adventurous. It’s a visual story as much as an acoustic one, offering luthiers the chance to build instruments that stand out for their beauty as much as their sound.
