1/4 Violin Bow Maker: W.E. Dörfler Country of Origin: Germany Size: 1/4 Square bow. Rare 1/4 size German bow. Screw action is smooth. Will be delivered after rehairing. Minor scratches, dirt, and clear coat peeling. Even mass-produced string instrument bows were typically made of pernambuco wood. In recent years, this has become difficult, and even expensive bows and makers have to use other materials, which is a regrettable situation. The used bows we sell at Atta!! are bows properly made with pernambuco wood from that time. The frog material and screw materials are also wonderful, as they were then. We hope that these bows will be passed on to others, so that children can learn about and use the real thing.
