An interesting bow of
Unknown Origin
Probably German
 
Circa 1930

 
This is an interesting and well-made bow. The style and workmanship seems to be German, but the stamp is not only poorly done, but also worn to the extent that it is and the maker cannot be discerned.

All fittings seem original. I belive the bow is older than it looks, but has not been used extensively. The tip slide may be a later. This bow is on the heavy side, but is well balanced and has nice playing properties that would suit an advanced player.
