About Matija Flutes — Craft, Experience, and Purpose

This is Matija

and this is Boris

Matija Flutes is a boutique flute maker dedicated to creating instruments that combine solid fundamentals, experienced design, and real musical performance. What sets us apart is our commitment to clarity, precision, and honest build quality — not hype.

Our founder, Boris Popovich, has been involved in professional flute making since 2000. He began his career at Verne Q. Powell Flutes in Boston, where he learned traditional flute construction and finishing at the highest level. Over many years of working with flutes from top makers, Boris developed a deep understanding of mechanics, ergonomics, and what players truly need from their instrument.

Today, Matija Flutes offers a curated selection of models — from student and intermediate instruments to finely finished ebonite and wooden flutes. Each instrument is carefully prepared and adjusted for playability before it leaves our workshop, with options that respect different playing styles and preferences.

We believe that a flute should feel intuitive, respond reliably, and inspire musical expression. Whether you are selecting your first serious instrument, upgrading to the next level, or looking for a unique voice in performance, we are here to help. Our goal is to make the experience as straightforward and reassuring as the instruments we offer. You are always welcome to contact us directly with questions or for personal guidance before you order.
