IBK Posted January 16, 2025 Report Posted January 16, 2025 They are not representing this as a Hill bow. Just a bow stamped as such. It is a nice gold mounted (karat weight unknown) A very nice bow, but most likely not a Hill. Possibly a higher end Chinese.
GeorgeH Posted January 16, 2025 Report Posted January 16, 2025 Of the dozens of violin and viola bows shown in the Corzio archive, only one violin bow has a frog with a round corner in the back. So perhaps that is enough to raise a likely-correct suspicion that it is not an authentic Hill bow.
Dwight Brown Posted January 17, 2025 Author Report Posted January 17, 2025 I didn’t think it could be a Hill. Just wondering what folks thought it might be. The estimate is too low even for a lower grade Hill (H&S, Hill, etc.) DLB
lorenzo pedersano Posted January 17, 2025 Report Posted January 17, 2025 This is almost certainly a Chinese bow. Not a Hill bow .
