Tebbs, a life-long violin player and instructor, launched the site in 2001 mainly as a result of the difficulty she had finding violin-theme gifts for her friends and students. The site offers a wide variety of items including figurines, t-shirts, posters, and full selection of elegant jewelry. Tebbs also writes an informative newsletter, and often posts letters and comments from her customers on the site, making it an informative and comfortable place for string players to gather online.
The Violin Case offers a full line of violin-theme gifts and collectibles for string players, teachers, and students. Owned and operated by Julie Tebbs, the Seattle based company is the web’s only source for unique violin gifts. Visit them today at www.TheViolinCase.com.
