Cabinz have a 1946 Violin made by a German POW in Anglesey after WW2 in beautifully made of many reused materials


The case is made from wood medical boxes, lined with a felt wool blanket, canvas straps
and hinges made from metal tins  

We are looking into having this restored and possibly displayed in a local museum

A similar Violin made at Braintree PoW camp appeared in a Bbc news story  in 2016

We've had a flood of water that has leaked and damaged some of the hardware, electronic collectables and clothes we sell to raise funds for our project

   We will let them dry out and then inspect them to see what can be salvaged
