FS: Lot of 3 period bows, baroque and classical. $600

Up for sale is a lot of three period double bass bows. The first two are baroque bows and the third is a classical bow. The first bow (from top to bottom) is 705mm long, 105g and made of snakewood with an ebony frog and screw and curves outwards. The second bow is 740mm long, 128g, and made of snakewood with a snakewood frog and small snakewood screw. The third bow is 735mm long, 110g, and made of ironwood with an ebony frog and small ebony screw. The two baroque bows have a swan tip and the third has a meat clever head, with all bows having an open-style frog. All bows are meant to be held underhand, although the frog on the first baroque bow is small enough that it could be held overhand. Pictures below:














The three bows are unlabeled and have been things I've picked up over time. Since I have too many bows, I'd like to sell the three in a lot for $600. I think this is a really good deal and would jump start anyone who's interested in using historical bows. I'd prefer not to break up the set just because it would be easier to sell them together. Please PM me if interested, thanks!
