RAB Award 2024: Juno was awarded a work placement with Phil Brown.
She wrote: “At PhiIip’s workshop I started by completing two bow rehairs, including sorting the hair – the first took about 2 days and the second just over a day. Then I started making a bow in bloodwood satine. I learnt further methods of rehairing at the workshop, they had a different way of tying the hair which was easier. Though I was hoping to concentrate on repairing, restoring and making bows, it was the first time I had gone through the whole rehairing process.
The RAB Trust were very helpful when I was trying to make arrangements for the work placement, and though my speciality is viols they found a maker for me who makes and restores a lot of baroque bows, which was relevant to me.”
