Lovely violin bow with the typical "open French frog model" .(made ca 1850), suited for "old music". Ebony frog and original bone button, with a fine stick made of beautifull wood. The total length of the stick is around 73.6 cm and the weight of the bow is around 62 gr.
 
The bow comes with new hair and winding. François Xavier Bazin- (b. Mirecourt 1824 - d. Mirecourt 1865) - was a French archetier / master bow maker and was first of the Bazin dynasty. Notable experts
