It is there to bring friction between the bow hair and string.

How it is made is actually quite simple. With natural rosin you simply collect sap trees by tapping them, drilling a hole then putting a tap in so it flows out. Then you distil the sap to collect rosin. Then you heat it to melt it and pour it in to whatever shape you want.
