Louis Garrel learned manufacturing techniques in a violin workshop for 19 years, starting in 1901. Later, in 1921, he established the string instrument workshop <Ballon de Paris> with his brothers to research violin making and acoustics.

​

Louis Garrel succeeded in restoring distorted sound to normal using 'Vicuña wool' in 1920.

In 1945, he was officially recognized for his technique and recorded as a figure who made a significant mark in string instrument manufacturing.

Designer Raphaël Garrel

(1957~ )

Raphaël Garrel, the fourth generation of the Garrel family, majored in industrial design and has created speakers incorporating the family's techniques together with his brother Julian Garrel, a tuner who inherited the technical skills.

This is the beginning of the <Ballon de Paris> speakers.
