I make both baroque inspired and modern bows. My baroque models are conserved in museums and private collections.
While I try to be faithful to my model, I place an even greater emphasis on a bow’s playability.
My modern bows are influenced primarily by French Makers of the first half of the 19th Century. In particular I have been creating bows influenced by Tourte.
