1885-2025: 140 years of innovation

On the occasion of this emblematic anniversary, Henri SELMER Paris celebrates the pillars of its history, making each instrument a unique masterpiece.

A tribute to generations of artisans who, over the decades, have passionately and meticulously preserved a rare expertise in our Mantes-la-Ville factory.

A tribute to the iconic instruments born from these workshops, some of which have left a mark on musical history, reflecting a living and daring tradition.

And of course, a tribute to musicians worldwide who, through their diverse styles, bring our heritage to life and give voice to our shared passion for music.

Alto and tenor saxophones

Produced in a limited, numbered series of 500 units for altos and 300 for tenors, these unique versions of the Supreme saxophones have the same acoustic, mechanical, and ergonomic qualities.

These instruments stand out with a specific, bold and creative design. From the glossy black crystal key touches to the neck with a blend of synthetic and natural black cork, the Limited Editions 2025 explore a rich and varied palette of blacks. Body and keys are finished in matte black, contrasting and highlighting an engraving that reveals the brass’s brilliance. This motif embodies an artistic vision of a musical score - a true calligraphy of musical notation that extends to the body-to-bell ring, the bell and the guard.

These limited editions come with a range of exclusive accessories : case, metal strap, Concept mouthpiece with black matte chrome ligature and cap, black chrome brass plug, cleaning cloths and swabs, cork grease tube.

The engraving, inspired by a rediscovered score

While the origins of Maison SELMER are often associated with Henri SELMER, his brother Alexandre, a renowned clarinetist in the United States, greatly contributed to the company's presence in America in the early 20th century.

During his career with major orchestras (Boston, Cincinnati…), Alexandre Selmer composed a clarinet study dedicated to his musician friend George Bundy, symbolizing the musical dialogue and artistic sharing that has been dear to our Maison from its inception.

Recently rediscovered in our workshops, this document became the starting point for the design of our anniversary edition engraving, entrusted to designer Jérémie Bernard. Reimagined, this document transforms into an imaginary score, where each note engraved on the instrument tells the story of a music that continues to reinvent itself...

And for this 140th anniversary, Henri SELMER Paris has even more surprises in store for you...
