Lightweight German W. Seifert violin bow

This lightweight W. Seifert violin bow is a very good handmade piece of work by the Seifert family workshop made around 1970/1980 in Bubenreuth. The round bow stick is made of good, light-brown pernambuco wood and is of medium strength. The ebony frog is nickel mounted with a Pearl eye and golden-green-rose shimmering pearl slide. Like all Corilon instruments and bows, this undamaged W. Seifert violin bow has been worked over and is offered with new hair, leather and silver winding. The length is 74.2 cm, the balance point is in the lower  half of the stick and measured at 25.6 cm from the frog end. This W Seifert violin bow is a good working bow that feels very convenient in the hand and is easy to control. It has a bright and clear, radiant tone and complements dull or mellow, somehwat unprecisely sounding violins.
