Hi! Found you by putting "cello bow hold" in search on Yahoo.com. 

I'm 54, been playing cello for a year & a half and am having great problems holding the bow. 

Hopefully Mr. Cellophant will help! 

Really wish he came in green but blue is cool too! 

I'll keep you posted. 

Update: Well, Mr. Cellophant is a hit! He really helps with my hold. 

I was leery of taking the bow apart (didn't even know it CAME apart lol). 

When packing my cello away, I just wrap my bow in a piece of fleece and lay it next to the strings (Cellophant near the bridge).

Fits perfectly!

I love my Cellophant!

I told my teacher about it and none of the other adults in the class laughed at me.
