Development and production
The PIRASTRO KorfkerRest® uses many of the technologies found in the PIRASTRO KorfkerCradle®. Bendable maple and redesigned sleek and ultra light rubber feet redefine the classic shoulder rest. The result is an extremely light weight (violin rest 32 grams, viola rest 40 grams) and comfortable rest that lets the violin sound more freely than any other traditional rest or cushion on the market today. Only its bigger brother, the PIRASTRO KorfkerCradle® can give the player more freedom of sound and expression.
