Hi everyone, I recently came into possession of my great grandad's violin. It has no label inside and I was wondering if anyone could help Identify a likely age or place of origin for this instrument. While I have some experience in lutherie, I have little to no knowledge of violin making. It is a family story that my grandfather brought this instrument from Germany or Poland as a kid in the early 1900s, but the bow is marked "Japan." I know the bow and violin could have been made independently of each other, but what does the make of the violin suggest. Thanks, Gus

Someone was clearly selling something they had no idea what it was. I was able to buy it for $150. My Luthier in NYC told me when it properly repaired which should be about ~700 dollars, it will be worth around ~7,000. Does this seem right at all? Label says Heinrich E. Heberlein Jr. 1922. Strad Copy. Thanks for your insight!

Just as the title suggests, these cellos do not look French, the labels are obviously fake, but the scrolls look slightly interesting in a wonky Markneukirchen way, bodies look Romanian... could they still be worth the listed prices disregarding the presented origins/labels? Also, the “Laberte” doesn’t really look that appealing by any standard (new or old), in my opinion. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F123639056175 https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F123639027937
