The AIR Cello Case combines elegant aesthetics with a new manufacturing process. This procedure allows for more freedom in design and shaping while achieving a lighter and more durable shell; thus reaching the objective of increased impact protection. The shape of the case is derived from the instrument itself and reduced to the minimum required volume. This leads to a lightweight, accurately fitting protective layer that reflects the sensual shape of the instrument.
