Swiss pegs are valued for their comfortable convex shape and the fact that they are made completely from a single piece of wood (there are no attached rings, collars, or inlay).

Figaro fine fittings are made only from the best sourced materials and finished by hand by craftsmen in a family owned business.

The Nero material is made in the USA from eucalyptus paper and thermosetting resins. It is pure black and mimics the finest Madagascar ebony. It is hypoallergenic and not susceptible to humidity or temperature change. The surface is impermeable to sweat and body fluids and therefore very easy to clean. 

The dimensions of these pegs are as follows:

For Violin

Shaft Length: 45 mm

Diameter of Shaft at Collar: 7.2 or 8.2 mm, 1:25 taper (Shafts are not turnable with normal peg shapers). The reamer for the pegbox must be used to create the correct peg head projection.

Overall Length: 70 mm

For Viola

Shaft Length: 51 mm

Diameter of Shaft at Collar: 7.5 or 8.5 mm, 1:25 taper (Shafts are not turnable with normal peg shapers). The reamer for the pegbox must be used to create the correct peg head projection.

These pegs are not drilled or cut and polished on the ends, so we recommend installation by a qualified luthier.
