Viola Bows

The right bow doesn't just move the string — it shapes your sound, responds to your technique, and grows with you as a player. At Atelier for Fine Stringed Instruments, we hand-select viola bows across a range of styles and price points, from reliable student sticks to fine pernambuco bows for the advancing or professional violist.

Whether you're looking for more control in the upper half, a warmer tone color, or simply a meaningful upgrade from what came with your instrument, the right bow is out there — and we can help you find it.

Every bow in our collection is inspected and set up before it ships. Not sure where to start? Contact us and we'll help you find the right match for your playing style and budget.
