Chinrest designs by Alexander Accessories

Guarnerius Standard for the violin

This is a classical design based on all the best features of Guarnerius that we have previously seen. It is a low chinrest that still allows some grip. This basic design has been very popular ever since we started producing chinrests.

Guarnerius Standard for the viola

Guarnerius Kinked for the violin

This is based on the Standard Guarnerius design but the outside gripping edge of the bowl is fore-shortened and brought down to the bowl level. It is available in a violin or viola version.

Guarnerius Gilkes for the violin

The bowl is much shallower and gentler than our Standard Guarnerius, the radii are unusual and produce an aesthetically beautiful design.

High Teka Continental for the violin

Another classical design, side mounted and unbelievably popular.

High Teka Continental for the viola

High Teka Old English for the violin

This is virtually the same design as the Continental but the g-string side of the bowl is followed through to the edge of the chinrest; whereas the Continental is carved away.

High Teka Giraffe Continental for the violin

The top is exactly the same design as the standard High Teka. For those players who like a little extra height, there is an additional 3 mm left on the base. It is available in Continental or Old English formats.
