    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 Anqi Ni, Cremona, 2024

    By Anqi Ni  |  

    This violin, inspired by Giuseppe Ornati, was crafted by the hands of a skillful rising-star maker. It beautifully combines Anqi's contemporary vision with her Cremonese traditional handcraftsmanship. For us, its highlight is the superb sculpted scroll delineated by the black chamfers.
