A very fine gold and tortoiseshell mounted violin bow by Carl Albert Nurnberger, made in Markneukirchen, Germany, c.1925. Octagonal stick of beautiful honey coloured pernambuco finished with the typical linseed oil used by the maker in this period. A beautiful example of the exceptional French inspired workmanship of the maker. In a very good state of restoration.
History & Provenance
Carl Albert Nürnberger built on his father Franz Albert Nürnberger Jr.'s success to bring his family's long tradition of bow making to its peak in the 1920s. He apprenticed in the family workshop Markneukirchen, where he gained the skills required to produce the firm's signature Tourte-model bows. Working alongside his brother Philipp Paul, he further refined the model, turning the respected family workshop into one of the world's best, unsurpassed in consistent quality and precision.
