REGISTRY of LOST and/or STOLEN INSTRUMENTS
Updated as of July 18, 2024
This listing of lost and stolen instruments is maintained free of charge as a service to the flute playing community. Items are listed as information is received. Please be aware - postings here reflect only the information provided to us for that purpose; resolving any questions of clear title or ownership rights as regards any specific instrument is well beyond the bounds of any service Flute Network can provide, and that Flute Network accepts no liability in that regard. Contact information is provided with each listing - any and all questions or concerns about an instrument listed here should be addressed to that party. (The Flute Network does make every effort, however, to insure that all listings accurately reflect the information that is received!)
HAVE YOU HAD A THEFT or LOSS?? As is the case with any major theft, it is very worthwhile to file a Police Report of the loss as soon as it occurs. While instruments have indeed been recovered and returned to their original owners, it has nearly always been with the support of this sort - i.e., being able to document ownership and "theft" (such as with a copy of the Police Report). Now, I know from personal experience that it can sometimes be difficult to file such a thing in some places -- however, doing so may make the difference in preserving your rights should your instrument be located years from now.
HAVE YOU SEEN AN INSTRUMENT YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT?? - should you have any information about any of the lost or stolen instruments listed, please feel free to contact either these people directly, or via The Flute Network. If we all keep an eye out for each other, it will help to take the profit out of crime!
HELPFUL HINT: Use the search feature on your internet browser to go through these listings if you're wanting to check out a particular flute by maker or by serial number!

IMPORTANT NOTICE! IMPORTANT NOTICE! IMPORTANT NOTICE! Sad to have to add this one, but recent happenings require it. SHOULD you be contacted by someone saying they "have a lead" or
they've maybe "talked with someone who has your instrument" and tells you this person maybe "understands that it was stolen and is willing to return it to you if you forward
the shipping costs to them"... (in the most recent example we've heard of, this person happens to be in Africa - but the same scam can be run just about anywhere)... Do NOT ASSUME
they are telling you the truth. Should you receive such a contact by anyone - first thing to do is require photos be sent making it easy to identify the real article is
indeed in their reach... odds are, you won't hear anything back from them at that point (which tells you something...). The key thing is: keep your head about you, should you receive
such a contact, and be extremely cautious in any return contact. Do not hesitate to involve your local Police. We're here to help you too. It really is true, though... we
really are all in this together.
