Violin.
A pale ribbon of bow hair crosses the deep curve of a violin. Under its varnish the wood looks almost amber.

Where a bow rests between rehearsals.
The ebony fittings draw the darkest line across the warm wood. Claret from the case lining softens that contrast. A very small area of pale horsehair is enough to articulate the whole arrangement.
For a chamber recital programme, set Pegbox Ebony type on Bow Ribbon paper. Use Violin Amber for the title and Case Claret for the inside cover.
