PROFESSIONAL BOW WORKSHOP

I am a bow maker of passion.

In my workshop, I make bows for violins, violas and cellos - from high-quality bows for learners to professional bows for soloists.

For musicians, their bows are just as important as their instruments. The bow has a significant influence on the sound of stringed instruments, and not every bow is perfect for every instrument.

My objective is to make the best bow for every musician. That is why a thorough discussion with the musician at the start is important to me. Emotions have a decisive influence on my creative potential. I gather and condense emotions and information, and begin with the individual preparation work to craft unique, hand-made bows tuned to the needs of the musicians and their instruments.
