Authentic label, hand written 732, old Roman font and Master’s age. Many other important and obscure Italian names were also used on labels by factories, workshops and dealers of instruments: Amati, Guarneri, Gagliano, Ruggieri and many others. One should also give attention to the font.

Is it okay to leave violin out of case?
Also never leave your violin or viola in its case with the lid closed but the zipper/latches open; it’s too easy to forget and have the instrument fall out. Violins and violas should be closed securely in their cases, and cellos and basses should be placed in a stand or on their sides on the floor.
Is a copy of a Stradivarius worth anything?
Anywhere from $50 to $50,000 depending on its maker. The vast majority of violins are copies of some Stradivarius or another; most aren’t marked as such. (In fact, I suspect many violin makers don’t realize that the shapes they’re using were created by careful measurement of a Stradivarius.)
How much should I spend on a violin case?
So spend between 10 and 20% of the cost of your violin on your case sounds reasonable to me. However, a nice looking, sturdy, expensive looking case that provides ample storage space for music and accessories does make one’s violin look more valuable. Many, if not most, people judge the value of an item by its look.
Can I clean my violin with water?
Only use water on a damp cloth to clean the body of your violin – you should never use polish or other harsh chemicals, as this can damage the varnish. The varnish is there to protect the wood, so take care to keep the varnish layer safe.
How do you store a violin without a case?
Other than just a case, additional fabric wrapping around your violin can help further mitigate any jostling that may occur throughout its storage. Some people like to wrap their violins in bubble wrap too, but you should probably wrap it in something soft first to protect the surface of the instrument.
