Etienne Pajeot is considered one of the most important and respected bow makers of the 19th Century even though he never left Mirecourt for Paris. He was trained by his father Louis Simon and started making bows on his own around 1815. This unusually fine bow is a fine example of Pajeot’s work and has a gold mounted ivory frog with a distinctive button with pearl facets. It is certified by Issac Salchow of New York.
