The J. Thibouville-Lamy ‘TLBV2’ Violin bow is a beautiful ‘Master Archetier’ piece honouring the expertise of famed Mirecourt bow-maker Joseph Alfred Lamy (Lamy Père’) and featuring '925' silver, striped lapping. 
Each bow blank is selected from a coveted stock of the finest 20-year seasoned Pernambuco which is first tested for resonance and elasticity using a Lucchi Meter. Only blanks achieving a rating over 5300 make the necessary grade for J.Thibouville-Lamy bows, with pieces of this resonant quality being few and far between. This meticulous grading process ensures that only the very finest sticks are selected for our very finest bows.
Bow frogs are cut from fine Burmese Ebony and hand-finished with ‘925’ sterling silver fittings; the grips are made of the softest leather and wound with ‘925’ Silver wire; and the bow hair is unbleached, Mongolian horsetail, prized for its thickness and strength.
Each of the J.Thibouville-Lamy bows is handmade by a Master Luthier in Suzhou, China and supplied in a presentation box with a certificate of authenticity.
