A bow by

J. P. Marie Persoit

Paris

Weight: 59 gms

Persoit was a contemporary of Tourte who lived long enough to work in the J. B. Vuillaume shop. Persoit has often been compared to Tourte in the excellence of his work. Paul Childs wrote an excellent book about this maker that is still available. The octagonal shaft is of reddish-brown Pernambuco. The original frog and button are of silver and ebony. This is an outstanding work by this renowned master.
