Rare ⚠️ Archet Sonoré Violin 4/4 Bow

I was hesitant to list this item, so I had taken it down, but I am temporarily relisting it.
It has not been used frequently and is in very beautiful condition.
The sound is very rich and good, but I believe it is for advanced players due to its Tortoise-style shape.

This model is now rare and no longer sold by the manufacturer. The engraving is ARCHET SONOLE (which is superior to standard advanced models like ARCHET A TOKYO).
I believe it is a TO TRAD-s. The model number has been renewed, but it likely corresponds to the current model priced at 410,000 yen.

It weighs approximately 63.1 grams. It is a heavier violin bow, suited for advanced players, but when mastered, it allows for a very powerful tone.
I am hesitant to part with it because while musicians like Gwan-gyu Lee reportedly used cello bows for violin, even without going to such lengths, this bow, though made for violin, seems to easily produce a gripping sensation.
The resonance of double stops is excellent.

It is a Pernambuco stick with a slightly center-biased balance point. The sound is clear, rich, and good, making techniques like spiccato very easy.

Archet currently offers Sartory, Peccatte, Tortoise, and Lamy types. This is a Tortoise type, so it might be slightly more suited for advanced players than regular Sartory models, but it can be used for a lifetime!

It came in an Archet case that I sold for 9,800 yen a while ago (please refer to my history if you'd like).
The bow will be delivered securely packed in a new pipe.

The brown hue and intricate decorative design are perfect for those who want to pay attention to their appearance while performing.
