The bow has an elegant curve and is fitted with an ebony frog with a heel plate and a Parisian eye, providing a refined finish and a comfortable grip.

Pernambuco, native to northern and central Brazil, is recognized worldwide as the finest bow material, and Dörfler ensures that only select wood is used, with great attention to sustainability and quality. Because these trees grow slowly and are protected, their use in the bow industry is now strictly regulated, making the wood even more valuable.

The Dörfler DA16 is a bow that is the ideal partner for a high-quality viola, offering the musician the perfect combination of power, precision, and sensitivity for excellent sound production.
