This German violin bow by Edwin Lothar Herrmann, made around 1950 in Markneukirchen, is a work from the established tradition of post-war bow making in the Vogtland region. The round stick of medium strength is made of reddish-brown pernambuco wood. The ebony frog is mounted with nickel silver and a three-piece screw and features a discreet white-green-rose-colored mother-of-pearl slide. The balance is well coordinated; the center of gravity is at about 26.2 cm, slightly toward the upper half. When played, it produces a large, warm, and bright tone with stable response. The bowing is controlled and easygoing, which supports reliable tone production even with changing articulation. A high-quality German master violin bow from Markneukirchen in undamaged, playable condition. Delivered free of shipping costs, with a 30-day return policy and Corilon's trade-in guarantee.
