    Georg Lankl

    Hello all Just had a very tatty violin in labelled Lankl Tirol Seems genuine, but Henley list Schonbach, not Tirol? Would someone comment on that please
  6. Just submitted a bog-standard Miracourt violin to an online Ai violin ID. Reply came back Cremona! Not exactly untrue but...?
  7. Thanks Brad I was hoping to donate it Guess the next step is eBay?
  8. Some years ago someone in the USA expressed interest in this really old leather Violin case. I cannot find the link now Not sure how old it is, but I would love it to be added to someone's collection , being cared for!
  9. We at Caswells regularly fit Kaplans, and they often outperform others on Student Celli in £5K to £9K bracket. Highly recommended
  10. This quote from Martin Swann seems to confirm Hamilton's comments? ...If pernambuco was placed on Appendix I it would render illegal any trade in bows made after 2007
  11. It would still tend to ..'wipe out the investment' as fine bows are traded internationally?
  12. Quote from Hamilton Caswell, who recently liquidated his entire stock of bows - "... if the November CITES conference decide to lift Pernambuco wood from Appendix 2 into Appendix 1, it would make all pernambuco wood and all pernambuco wood bows (however old) illegal to sell to anyone. This would wipe out the investment of musicians, collectors, dealer, suppliers and bow makers at a stroke.
