      Full description

      This bow differs from many of the bows made in the period by members of the Bazin family, who, in setting out to copy great examples of French bow-making, such as F.X. Tourte, replicated even then some details of antique bows that were no longer so common. This bow is a copy of Tourte's model commonly called "Swan-head", due to the elongated shape of the bow's tip. This style was also widely used by other great archetiers such as Joseph Henry. Closer to what is expected from the proposal of a cello bow of the time, this model confers great stability and quick response while preserving a more delicate profile throughout the bow, in which the distance between the hair and the stick is slightly narrower.

      Charles Louis Bazin

      Charles Louis Bazin was the third generation of the family, at the time already settled as one of the most influential workshops of Mirecourt. His bows are noted for their exquisite balance, responsiveness, and playability. His innovative designs and refined techniques earned him renown among both musicians and fellow craftsmen.Learn more

      Violin by Sibylle Borchardt-Fehr, Cremona 2009

      By Sibylle Fehr-Borchardt  |  

      Made in Cremona in 2009 by Sibylle Fehr-Borchardt, this violin is a contemporary interpretation of a Guarneri 'Del Gesù' model. With a two-piece flamed maple back, figured Italian spruce top, and nuanced orange-brown varnish, it blends warmth with refinement. In our opinion, its standout feature is the precisely carved, symmetrical f-holes—offering a modern, elegant twist on Guarneri’s spontaneous aesthetic.
