duane88 Posted April 13, 2018 Report Share Posted April 13, 2018 6 blanks suitable for violin, viola, or cello bows. $75 each+shipping I made one bow with my friend Robert Morrow, and that was enough to show me that I am a violin maker, not a bow maker...

Hi Duane, i see 9 blanks, what about those 3 in the back? What would be the shipping costs for Holland, Europe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duane88 Posted April 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 Hello Emil, I am not sure, but I think that shipping to Holland might be a problem. Please check into that and get back to me. CITES regulations and all. If I can ship them via US Postal Service, the shipping might be reasonable, but I would hate for them to be confiscated and destroyed. The 3 in the back I am keeping for myself as they were gifts from a bowmaker friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emilg Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 Ok thanks Duane, i'll look into that if it's allowed.. strange world we live in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duane88 Posted April 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 These sticks aren't "old" but I have been in personal possession of them for 15 years, so they are at least that old, but I have no CITES documentation as to their origin.

duane88 Posted April 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 HomePernambuco Pernambuco Brazil wood or Pernambuco is a rare exotic hardwood that is a burnt reddish-orange color. It is noteworthy that Brazil was named after this wood due to the fact that the vivid orange and burnt red colors of the wood closely resemble the soil of Brazil.Uses include but are not limited to orange dye, stringed instrument bows, and fine boxes. This is a very stiff wood that is the wood of choice for instrument bows.A glass like finish can be obtained for stunning articles! Caselpinia echinata. We are really fortunate that we can offer this unique historic wood!We CANNOT ship this wood outside of the USA. From the Cook Woods website in Oregon, USA, so it might not be possible.

Crawforde Posted October 11, 2022 Report Share Posted October 11, 2022 I would be interested in purchasing a Bass or Cello sized blank if any are available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeyerFittings Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 I'll be going to the VSA Convention in Anaheim with 50 sticks to sell. All are pre-CITIES and will have docs. I don't know if the USFW will get them to me in time for the trip but they are coming and I have paid for them. Prices will depend on quality and or Lucci reading.
