Login to see prices

This silver-mounted violin bow was crafted entirely by Gregor Walbrodt during Paris years in 2011. Built on the Tourte model and shaped in an octagonal design, it combines the expected structural stability of the model with a remarkable flexibility and ease of manoeuvre. The bow comes with a certificate of value, and its original condition has been recently confirmed by the maker.

In playing, it produces a bright, direct, and powerful sound with excellent projection. Its flexible stick and even balance from frog to tip give the bow a highly responsive feel, offering clear articulation, clean spiccato, and an effortless ability to carry in the hall. Ideal for players seeking clarity and projection in classical repertoire, this bow provides both precision and confidence.


About the Maker — Gregor Walbrodt
Gregor Walbrodt’s craftsmanship is deeply rooted in the French tradition, shaped by formative years with masters such as J.M. Panhaleux and Stéphane Thomachot. A multiple gold-medal winner at international competitions—including several distinctions from the Violin Society of America—Walbrodt combines meticulous wood selection, refined camber work, and decades of experience as both a bow maker and violinist. His guiding principle is that a bow must disappear in the musician’s hands, allowing full concentration on interpretation. His bows are known for their perfect balance, flexible yet stable feel, and inspiring musical response—qualities he personally tests and fine-tunes in every bow that leaves his Berlin workshop.
