Someone broke into my car and stole my violin a few months back. I just found this community, and thought I'd post just in case anyone stumbles across it.
The label is marked 'Johann Georg Lippold, ca. 1815, Neukirchen bey Adorf'. It was in a slightly customized Bobelock case (black with blue interior, needed the upper bout widened), with a bow and the usual accessories. The bridge is stamped 'K. CARDIFF' on one side.
The violin has a lovely carved scroll which is pretty distinctive.
Thanks in advance! There is a police report filed if anyone needs it.
