Bowmaking Our bows are uniqe items, perfectly apt on musician and instrument. The knowledge of physical attributes and character of different materials allows us to bring about exact copies of antique bows and original parts to gain the best performance and original tone-colour. These pictures show the making of a baroque violin-bow. This model's stick is wholly fluted. Frog and stick are made of snakewood, the adjuster is made of bone with a silverring.
