Price: Upon Request
Maker: Georges Léon Lamy
Description: Born into the third generation of the Lamy family of French luthiers, bow maker George Léon Lamy (1881-1915) was the youngest son of renowned archetier Joseph Alfred Lamy ("Lamy pére" 1850-1919), and brother of Hippolyte Camille Lamy (1875-1942). He worked in his father's bow workshop in Paris before serving in World War I, where he died in 1915, cutting short his promising career. His style is close to that of his father, and it is often to distinguish the two makers. Georges Léon Lamy's bows are as much sought after as his father's but even more scarce.
This cello bow is in excellent condition. The bow is strong and superbly balanced. Certified by Isaac Salchow of NY, NY. Weight: 79.3 grams
