This exceptionally well-preserved example by one of the most sought after bow makers is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for collectors and players to obtain a bow in a state of preservation that is close to how it left the maker’s hand. The original lapping is well preserved and the stamp is crisp and clear.

Illustrated in Millant & Raffin’s famed book ‘L’Archet’, vol II, p.136, it is described by Bernard Millant as a rare and beautiful specimen, in practically new condition.
