Tartar(?) bow
 
Nice condition, though lookin' kinda green. Interestingly complex shape. Ebay#6513227748 I sure don't see a lot of these.

Looks more Persian to me... Tartar or Mongolian bows usually don't curl up quite as much when unstrung, and more frequently they have two rests for the bow string toward the ends.

Interesting. Thanks. Bows from Tibet that I have seen curl pretty much into a full loop, too.

Montino, please wait until an auction ends to post the number or link. Feel free to link photos for discussion, however. :)
