Note:  All items in our store include NO sales tax to our US customers!Check out this beautiful Vintage Albert Nurnberger Violin Bow for your buying consideration.  We recently acquired it with an older violin and unmarked bow that will be sold separately in our store.  Would make a great gift or keep it for yourself!
An Ebayer recently selected this item, but then changed their mind before paying.  So, the item is available again for your buying advantage!It appears the bow is made of pernambuco wood.  Has a rounded shaft then eight sided by the frog.  This is a Albert Nurnberger violin bow made in Germany.   Nurnberger bows are highly sought after for their quality and you will find many that have sold at high end auction houses with a 35% buyer premium tacked on to a hammer price higher than what we are offering this bow for. 
Minor loss of the finish along the shaft.  Nice looking frog on it.  No cracks, splits or missing pieces to the ebony, mother of pearl or other materials.  The bow has no cracks, splits or repairs to the wood that we can see to report to you.  "Albert Nurnberger" impression on the shaft above the frog.   Has "Germany" impressed under the frog.  The bow still has a great finish on it.  Good camber.  Strong flex to the shaft and I can ascertain no warping, splits or repairs to report to you.  The bow has a silver colored wire wrapping with black tape/leather winding on the shaft.  Beautiful tip on this violin bow as well.  There is old horse hair on the bow, it will need to be rehaired at some juncture.
The mother of pearl inlays are in place on the sides of the frog and along the bottom.  Appears to be a silver and ebony end screw.  The bow is 29-3/8" (736.6mm) long.  The bow weighs 1.7 ounces (48 grams) with no horse hair on it.  Let us know if you have any questions or need additional pictures.
The pictures provided both complement and supplement the listing description, so please look at them very closely as well.  With old items, there is no way one can capture all the little imperfections in words, so the two media are meant to be the full description.  Only look at the pics thru a PC or laptop, as the Ebay smart phone and IPad system does not provide you with the ability to zoom in within the pics.Make sure that this violin bow meets your needs and requirements before deciding to acquire it.   The item can be returned, there is a 10% restocking fee to do so.  So again, ask all questions you have, come see in person or send a friend to see the clock on your behalf, prior to deciding to acquire it.  
Some information about the Nurnberger violin bow making family from our friends at Wikipedia;

(Franz) Albert (II) Nürnberger (1854 – 1931) is regarded as one of the greatest German  makers.

He was trained in bowmaking by his father Franz Albert I (b. 1826-d.1894),son of Karl Gottlieb, in . Albert Nürnberger (Jr.) established his own shop around 1880.He trained his son, Karl Albert (b. 1885 - d.1971), who also used his brand. Unfortunately the later workshop bows also used the same brand.Before World War I (and after as well, until death of Albert II in 1931) Nürnberger and  were of the same competing standard, the best workshops in the world.His bows are highly sought after. Original "Albert Nürnberger" bows, made before 1931 are rarer, of a higher standard and highly priced."He is known to have exported bows to the US, where the  shop represented him as "the greatest modern bow maker" (c. 1912).
