Historic bows · Private transactions
Rare and historically important bows are presented with discretion, careful attention to authorship and condition, and complete private documentation.
An antique bow should be understood through its construction, stylistic language, condition and documentary context—not through a stamp alone.
Our public profiles explain the makers. Information about each available bow is reserved for a direct and serious enquiry.
Following an enquiry, we provide the relevant expert certificate—Cabinet Raffin for French bows or H.K. Schmidt, Dresden for German bows—together with detailed photographs, full description, condition information, price and relevant provenance privately.
