Period Bow Makers
This is a listing of Bow Makers who specialize in Period Bows. As with all the listings of resources on my Web pages, these are not intended to have my personal endorsements. All of these makers have bows in the hands of professional musicians and have met with a degree of commercial success. Many musicians have asked me if I know of any Baroque Bow Makers. Well... here they are.
If you are a professional baroque bow maker not on this list or find that I've made an error in any of my listings, please contact me.
