This bow accompanies the famous viola d’amore (1714) of Caspar Stadler, which is exhibited in the Germanisches National Museum in Nuremberg. The stick and frog of the original are elaborately decorated with silverpoint.
The frog is made of ebony, boxwood or snakewood; if desired, we can also add the purely decorative silver ornamentation.
The bow’s striking contours culminate in an eye-catching tip, but despite its graceful form, it readily shows its stronger side.
This model is delivered with two frogs for adjusting the hair tension while maintaining a consistent playing height (i.e. distance between hair and stick at the frog). If desired, we can also build this bow with a screw mechanism.
