Arcos Ipe Silver-Mounted Violin Bow, round stick

The Arcos Brasil violin bow is handmade in Brazil from Ipe wood, a Brazilian hardwood used as an alternative to pernambuco. Ipe shares some characteristics with pernambuco and is used to make bows with a traditional appearance and playing feel.

The round stick is paired with a silver-mounted ebony frog. The bow is branded “IPE” near the button for easy identification. Makers may include T. Chagas, P. Correla, F. Modenese, and T. Pampolin.
