Description

I found this bow in a old violin case and thats all that was in case 

the parts all include silver , mother or pearl , ebony wood and 

the foot seems to be some kind of bone , it is marked dodd with another mark that was under a wrap , or the part one would hold on to while playing 

but whatever was wrapped around bow is gone i can tell silver , ebony , pearl and bone is all real but i would like to know more about the bow and maker "dodd" any info would help , a man from sothby calld me after i emaied pics , then he had me text pics to his cell phone , he said he was getting on a plane and would be awhile before he could get back to me , please help  , thanks Jacob L. Webb
