Art craftsmen / Reed maker

Cogolin
RIGOTTI establishments harvest the reeds of Provence for more than 50 years to turn them into designed reeds for the different sorts of wind instruments. Located in Cogolin, RIGOTTI establishments are specialized in selling reeds, instruments reeds, sticks and tools for clarinets, saxophones, flutes, oboes, bassoons, English horns, contrabassoons, bombardes, bagpipes...
Their local "savoir-faire" and "made in France" production attracts musicians and manufacturers from all over the world.
In 2015, the French label "Entreprises du Patrimoine Vivant" (companies of living heritage) has been awarded to RIGOTTI in recognition of their local "savoir-faire".

Worth noting :
Cogolin's Tourist Information Office suggests guided tours many times a year explaining the different stages of the production process : from the reed crop growing to the creation of "these little languets" that the musicians adjust to their wind instruments and produce the sound when vibrating.
