W.E.Hill & Sons

sku Product SKU:  20862

The workshops of W.E.Hill & Sons produced exceptional bows for many decades. The bows stamped HILL, H&S or W.E.H&S were considered their “Budget” bows which sold at a lower price. In reality the only real difference between these bows and those with the “full stamp” W.E.HILL & SONS were the frog and button which had simpler mountings. But the quality of the sticks were usually the same on all of the Hill bows.
