German cello bow, 1920s, active and strong

This fine German master cello bow with a horn frog was crafted around 1920 in Markneukirchen. A cello bow that is highly active and tense at play, with excellent bounce properties. Due to its well-balanced weight distribution and a sensend balance point that is well centered, slightly shifted towards the frog, it features excellent playing properties and lies perfectly in the hand. The measured balance-point is at 24.5 cm, including the adjuster; the total weight is 82.6 g. The highly tense round stick was made of quality fernambuk wood. This fine cello bow offered here features an elegantly designed head and a silver mounted horn frog - the perfectly preserved, tasteful work of a skilled and experienced master. The sound is bright and powerful.
