Hippolyte Camille LAMY 1875 - 1942 sold enjoy your bow orla!

Made circa 1915 and weighing 61.5g this is a wonderful honest bow from this interesting period in the violin bows evolution. A direct contemporary of Eugene Sartory, indeed for a number of years even sharing a workshop it is clear H C Lamy admired his work and put several of his ideas into his own bows. Having had a hard playing life it is slightly worn in places, but made from the most stunning pernambuco, a lovely bow.
