Guivier is a renowned brand, specializing in the sale and restoration of instruments and bows from the violin family. With a rich history dating back to 1863, Guivier has established itself as one of Britain's leading violin dealers and restorers. The brand was founded by Joseph Prosper Guivier, a Frenchman who set up the company in London alongside Alphonse Villin.

Initially focusing on manufacturing and importing strings for musical instruments, they quickly expanded their offerings to include the sale of instruments themselves. Over the years, Guivier has continued to thrive under the guidance and leadership of dedicated individuals. From the careful stewardship of Mrs.

Ellen Cohn, who expanded the business to include the restoration of violins and bows, to the management of Henry George (Harry) Cohn, the brand has consistently grown and evolved. Today, Guivier is led by Richard White, along with his wife Julie, as co-director, and their team of highly skilled craftsmen and women.
