Introduction
A pre-owned modern-model violin bow bearing the brand stamp 'A.R. SANDNER', a name long associated with German bow making. A solid, honest bow with attractive fittings, offered for rehair - an excellent basis for a reliable playing bow for students and amateur players.
Historical and Artistic Context
The Sandner name is closely connected with the bow-making centre of Markneukirchen in the Vogtland, where generations of German makers produced dependable bows for players across Europe. Bows from this tradition are valued for their practical balance and sturdy construction.
Craftsmanship and Materials
The round stick is made of brazilwood and carries the clearly legible brand stamp above the frog. The frog is decorated with a pearl eye and a shimmering abalone slide, with gold-coloured mounts and a whalebone-style lapping.
Condition
In good pre-owned condition with normal signs of use. The bow needs a rehair before playing. There is wear and some small chips to the frog at the thumb position, next to the eye; please see the photos.
