Re: Richard Geipel violin bow
Richard Geipel was a violin and chello bow maker mid 20th century. He was from Markneukirchen/Schönlind Germany. Upon researching there are bows with his name that state Czechoslovakia . I believe this bow is circa 1950's origin Germany, What I figure happened was that he moved his shop or opened another one in the 1960's In the Czech Republic.
These bows vary in price and I have added a link below for you to review past auction results.
