Contemporary French violin bow from the golden age of the Morizot family workshop

Morizot frères – the Morizot brothers – is the name under which the studio of this remarkable family of historic bow makers experienced the most successful phase of its history. At its peak, the studio created this perfectly successful violin bow, whose ideal balance, responsive character and large, warm and radiant sound formulate a definition of modern French bow making.

When this Morizot frères violin bow was added to the collection in the Corilon catalogue, our experts were persuaded not least by the natural, pleasant feel of the bow in the hand. With a total weight of 59.5 g, the strong, elastic, round stick made of red-brown pernambuco enables intuitive access to differentiated sound designs across all registers. The original features, with a nickel-mounted ebony frog with a Parisian eye and a one-piece button, are in very good condition; a few minimal scratches tell of the intensive use of this violin bow, which was obviously played a lot.
