The Flesch style chinrest is super comfortable, with a generous cup offering plenty of real estate for various chin/jaw placements. The Flesch appeals to the same people as the Teka but to those who prefer a more exaggerated shape. Its "hill" is shorter and rounder, and its "valley" is deeper.
This is a flat circular-shaped chinrest with the feature of being played either with a centre mount or placed slightly to the left. It has a larger-sized chinrest with a slightly shallow cup that can be mounted over or on either side of the tailpiece. The lip is nicely rounded and sharper as it descends slightly toward the edge.

This chin rest is remarkable, allowing for modern playing technique without affecting the individuality of handling the instrument. Its fabrication is compact yet perfectly elegant design.
The Berber chin rest by Gewa is one of our most popular chin rests. It's a centre-mounted chin rest with a scooped side wing to allow the chin to move to the tailpiece's side.
