Description
This bow is in outstanding original condition and has been in our long-term ownership for professional use. The light weight is useful for certain repertoire, and the bow makes a sweet, clear sound. Note that the protective leather at the handle is not covering anything sinister, it was just added to minimise wear and tear to the handle.
