Unknown - Violin bow - Unknown (No reserve price)

A violin bow is an essential accessory for playing the violin, designed to produce sound by drawing the bow hair across the violin strings. Crafted typically from pernambuco or brazilwood, quality bows are valued for their balance, flexibility, and ability to control dynamics and articulation. The bow consists of a wooden stick, horsehair stretched between the ends, and fittings such as the frog and screw mechanism that adjust hair tension. Even when the maker is unknown, bows are often prized for their playability and effect on tone production. Violin bows contribute significantly to a player's expressive capabilities and overall sound quality.
