Perhaps this short clip of music sums up why my business exists. Beautifully played, it is a real pleasure to see a recently purchased violin bow in action. This Francois Nicolas Voirin bow had sat neglected in need of some restoration in a Swiss collection for about forty years.
A glorious example of a Vuillaume style frog
Now, after restoration in our Spanish workshop, it is once more performing to its best of potential thanks to our chief restorer. Indeed restoration is by no means straightforward and we are fortunate indeed to have some world class staff on hand to bring back Into use these stunningly beautiful bows. They look wonderful post restoration, but to see and hear them in action is a really thrilling experience.
