Our bows

Our bow collection is organized across several categories that reflect differences in origin, craftsmanship and stylistic tradition. Each bow is selected with attention to material quality, balance and musical response, within the broader context of historical and contemporary bow making.

Master bows
Master bows are distinguished by individual authorship, refined craftsmanship and strong stylistic identity. Often associated with recognised makers or schools, these bows are valued for their balance, responsiveness and artistic character.

French bows
French bows represent a tradition known for elegance, precision and refined handling. They are often characterised by subtle craftsmanship and a balanced playing feel, reflecting the influence of the French school of bow making.

German bows
German bows are associated with strength, stability and structural clarity. They reflect a distinct tradition in bow making, often favouring robustness and a clear tonal response.

Contemporary bows
Contemporary bows are produced by modern makers, combining traditional techniques with current approaches to materials and construction. They offer a contemporary interpretation of classical bow-making principles.

Bows for restoration
Bows for restoration include examples that require technical or structural work. They provide insight into historical construction and offer opportunities for careful restoration within traditional methods.
