Hi all!
Lovely to be back, but this time not under the thumb of somebody else, controlling my words...
Seeing as his bows are such a controversial subject, I thought it might be interesting for you to see a beautiful Kittel bow I currently have in my catalogue. My site is rather bare at the moment, what with it just being finished and without my stock being photographed yet, so my sincerest apologies for the emptiness! Looking forward to being a part of this wonderful community.
Very best

I've read many theories about the superiority of violins by the old masters -- theories that explain the great price differences between those instruments and modern ones. These theories include: superior materials, special wood preparation, natural aging, secret varnish, superior craftsmanship, etc.
Does a separate set of theories explain why classic violin bows bring such high prices? Has that been discussed on Maestronet, and can anyone point me to that discussion?
Thanks in advance for suggestions.
