Fine French violin bow made around 1900 by Charles Nicolas Bazin. Under C. N. Bazin’s direction, his family-owned atelier flourished into an extremely successful business and took its rightful place among the highest echelons of the French bow-making tradition. One indication of Bazin’s exalted status is his collaboration with some of the best and most exacting violin makers of his time. The round stick is made of the finest grade pernambuco and is wonderfully supple. The thickness and weight of the approximately 60 g C. N. Bazin bow are perfectly distributed, with a perceptibly central balance point somewhat inclined to the upper half of the stick. This is a true masterpiece; it comes with a certificate of authenticity and valuation provided by J.-F. Raffin, the world renowned Parisian bow-making expert. The powerful, outstanding sound drawn by this Charles Nicolas Bazin master bow is clear, precise and bright, conveying substance and character. The certificate of authenticity is included in the price and does not have to be ordered extra inside the shopping cart. Like all violins and bows from Corilon, this includes free worldwide shipping, 30 days returns and a lifetime trade-back guarantee.
