I am able to craft bows inspired by various historical periods, tailored to your specific preferences. Bows fitted with a clip-in frog offer a distinctly different balance and handling experience compared to those with a screw mechanism.

To me, historical performance practice is not simply about imitation—it’s about exploration. Choosing a period-appropriate bow can open up new expressive possibilities and encourage fresh approaches to technique, rather than merely replicating familiar methods.

While I generally advise maintaining the integrity of clip-in bows by keeping them as fixed-frog models, historical records show that even in the 18th century, musicians sometimes modified clip-in designs to accommodate the newer screw mechanisms. If you prefer, I can certainly incorporate screw fittings into these styles as well.

Each era offers a wide variety of bow designs and aesthetics to choose from. The images provided are just a small representation of what is available or what I can create.

I warmly invite you to leave a message with your email to discuss your ideas—I’d be delighted to help bring your vision to life.
