In an effort to explain who I am, I will give my background in Music and Ceramics. For the Ceramics description, go to my web-site WWW.CATALINAPICTURETILE.COM for a full history of how and when I started the company.

     I started the violin when I was 9 years old and have been playing it for 50 years so far. For the last 30 years I have been and still am a professional recording Violinist and Violist in the Hollywood Studio industry. I have worked on over 500 Motion Picture Sound Tracks and about the same number of Records/CD's. (To see which ones visit my web-site WWW.CHRISREUTINGER.COM I played in Henery Mancini's Studio Orchestra for over 12 years and worked on the later Frank Sinatra recordings. I work with musicians that own fabulous instruments. I ask questions about them. Over the years I have learned what looks like a German, French, or Italian instrument. Of course these are only my opinion when the instrument has no label so it is an educated guess. I try to sell wholesale value on most everything but sometimes the bidding gets crazy!
