A Good 1/2 Size Nickel-Mounted German Violin Bow, after Eugene Sartory

This is a really lovely little 1/2 size violin bow, probably dating from the 1930s and branded 'E.Sartory à Paris', emulating the work of popular and coveted French archetier Eugene Sartory. It was the childhood bow (paired with a gorgeous 1/2 size French violin from the late 19th century, also now available and visible in the 'Violins' section of the website) of a now-retired orchestral leader, who in spite of his young age at the time obviously took very good care of it, as the condition has remained extremely pure over the years. A great little bow at a very reasonable price, suitable for any talented young player.
