Dorfler bows are hand crafted in Germany, using precious and exquisite materials in order to guarantee master performance and technical ability. Pernambuco wood is used predominantly in their workshops, as it constantly fulfils the demands of exact bending and greatest possible tension at the ideal weight. Simply for Strings' team of professional players and teachers hand-select each bow to exacting criteria, including examining the hair, camber of the bow and the bow's ability and sound across different techniques.
About Andreas Dorfler:
Old and new get along together splendidly in the music field. With Andreas Dörfler the family company enters the 4th generation and, punctually to this change of generation, the product assortment will be extended. The new line of bows* “Ligne Bohème” orientates itself by the style of old French masters. The bow heads are more delicate and stylish, the French frogs, the naturally coloured sticks and the conical button appear as if they were actually from another epoch. With the new line of bows not just the nostalgics and friends of old arts get their money’s worth. The combination of modern expert knowledge results in a product of an entirely exceptional class. Here beautiful design and best tonal quality are united to a fine specimen.
