Description

This lovely silver and tortoiseshell bow was made before 1926 and is made from the highest quality pernambuco. It is 60g and is majestic in its boldness, also quintessentially English from the best period of Hill bows.
 

Playing Characteristics

When you play on this bow it feels so smooth and creates such a warm sound it is hard to resist - like the suspension on a fine car it carries you through your phrases with ease.  Although broad in concept it is delightfully agile.

Condition

This bow is pinned (pins are hidden) and there is also damage to the tortoiseshell frog.  The rest of the bow is in mint condition.
