— — Our story · since 2014A workshop for instruments
A workshop for instruments
that don't fit a category.
Tapadum started as a duo of Italian musicians chasing a single Turkish oud across three Istanbul workshops. Eleven years later, our atelier in Brisighella is the home address for 26 master luthiers across the Mediterranean — and the shipping desk for nearly 2,500 hand-tuned instruments delivered worldwide.
-
01Direct from masters. No middlemen. Each instrument is signed by the luthier who made it.
-
02Tuned before dispatch. Every saz, oud and santur is set up and intonated by Yildirim's team in our atelier.
-
03Worldwide insured shipping. DHL Express in custom-built crates · 3–7 working days.
