So, what purpose does it serve?

I have no wrapping on my bow! I think I heard somebody refer to the wrapping on the German bows as "fundamentally unnecessary", that is, if it's there, it's either to add weight/adjust balance, or because it's pretty to look at. On the other hand, French players wear on the wood in a different way than German players, which is why you will hardly find a French bow without. His thoughts, not mine, but maybe there's some truth to it.
