ARY BOWS HAVE ARRIVED !!
MADE IN FRANCE
We have just recieved an exciting new shipment of Ary bows from France. We now have bows available for Double Bass (French and German styles), Viola and Violin.
These bows have an attractive deep cherry red colour, silver winding and dark brown leathers and are stamped ARY-FRANCE.
We will be pricing these bows at well below the Reccommended Retail Price, so this will be a great opportunity to save on high-quality bows.
Ary bows represent great value for money and are perfect for advanced students, or perhaps as a second bow for the professional player.
Ary's top of the range bow for violin, the A. Martin, features gold winding and fittings. It plays beautifully and looks great. Only one of these available, so be quick!

The new Bam Violin Cases have emerged and are now in stock at Atelier Puglisi. The Classic, Classic III and Hightech Slim are a step up in both looks and secure protection for our collective beloved family of violins. Instruments like people, need care and protection.

Violin cases have come of age and are now even more important considering all the travel we do with our valuable instruments.
