There's nothing stopping Bling Strings from shipping to you if you're making an international order - I got mine delivered to the UK around 10 days after I ordered them.

Otherwise SDM strings and Greg Hill are likely to be your best bets for European made strings.

Cool

Stu at sdm makes very good compound stings and cables, I have never had any complaints about the quality or workmanship and the prices are hard to beat.

Ther are some very good string makers in the uk, Pyroarch and simon scott at a shop are definatly on that list, but you can take advantage of the current exchange rates and get either some winners choice or the amazing bling strings which are something else.
