I lost my red violin with a sunburst finish yesterday around 3pm near the Portland Museum of Art on Fore Street. It's a full-size violin in a brown hard case that has a chipped lower corner and a red velvet interior that's still intact. The bow is ebony with a few loose hairs, and there's a tiny star-shaped sticker on the inside of the case lid. I notice a faint coffee stain along the top edge of the varnish from a spill last week. This instrument is sentimental to me; it was a gift from my grandmother, and I’m really hoping someone found it and can return it.
