Overview

The Pinnacle of Japanese Craftsmanship Rooted in the Traditional French Style

Bearing the distinctive hand-stamped double-star hallmark, J. Thibouville-Lamy Master Series bows represent the pinnacle of Japanese craftsmanship, seamlessly blending precision and artistry with the enduring legacy of French bow-making.

Handcrafted in a specialist Japanese workshop established in 1983, each Master Series bow draws on decades of study of the traditional French style, inspired by historic bows from the great ateliers of the 19th century. The result is a perfect synthesis of strength, stability, and elegance - crafted for players who value expressive nuance, impeccable balance, and soulful resonance.

Made from the finest Pernambuco, seasoned for over 20 years, and fitted with a fully ‘925’ silver-mounted ebony frog, goat-skin grip, Mongolian stallion horsetail bow hair, and 935 silver and silk lapping, these bows offer exceptional poise, comfort, and tonal depth - delivering a responsive and commanding playing experience across the full range of the instrument.

About Dominique Peccatte:

Dominique Peccatte, born 1810, was an apprentice luthier in Mirecourt, France and by the age of 16 or 17 found his way into the workshops of the master Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume. During his decade of working with Vuillaume, Peccatte studied with Jean Pierre Marie Persois and also met Francois Tourte – the maker whose ‘hatchet-shaped’ bow tip he would ultimately adapt to great effect.

Peccatte famously also taught and collaborated with Joseph Henry and Pierre Simon. Peccatte’s brother Francois and nephew Charles were also renowned bow-makers.

Peccatte bows were a little more sturdy than other French bows of the era, and although not quite as flexible as his peer’s creations, his weightier constructions allowed the musician to obtain greater volume and rich articulation, well suited to the concert halls of the time.
