Key Features
The Cellophant Bow Hold improves your cello playing in a fun, engaging way. The Cellophant attaches to your bow and acts as a hand support for more comfortable playability. The elephant design not only looks unique, but also features subtle reference points for using your bow correctly. The Cellophant also releases tension from your hand for a more relaxed grip and smoother performance. This model has a concert black colour for a subtle look, and is ideal for student musicians wanting to establish the correct handling technique.

The correct bowing technique can be difficult to consistently achieve, especially for younger student musicians. The Cellophant fixes your bow into a position that’s both comfortable in your hand and has the correct angle for optimum playability. The trunk directs your thumb to the frog, whilst your finger comfortably sit around the elephant shape’s legs and features. For musicians who want to develop their own preference but still require the Cellophant’s assistance, the positioning can be altered slightly to accommodate. The Cellophant also releases the pressure from your hand for a more relaxed playing style, which is widely regarded as resulting in a smoother sound.
Many young players often find it difficult to stay inspired when initially learning a difficult instrument such as a cello. The Cellophant is an accessory that helps make the grip easier, but is also a fun and intriguing design. The elephant shape and smart colours are ideal for keeping younger players engaged with practice and developing. The Cellophant was designed by the String Teacher’s Association, and recognises that keeping learning fun is vital for any student’s progress.
