Redo: Bought this from a Luthier
My last post was confusing so I’m redoing it. I asked about the sub to identify this violin last week. I ended up buying it with plans to learn how to play. I purchased it from a luthier for $250 CAD on Facebook marketplace. I am very happy with my purchase and look forward to practicing when my bow comes in. I would love to know details about the violin like what year range it might be, where it’s possibly from etc.
The violin just came in today by mail. I noticed looking through the f hole that there was a scratched / gouged off sticker or something. It’s like a circle with some red paper maybe. I also took multiple pictures of the violin from different angles.
In my previous post someone had mentioned that they think it’s from Markneukirchen. And the Luthier said it’s an old European violin. Thought with the new photos and this scratched circle sticker / stamp someone might be able to pinpoint something. It’s a long shot but I’m excited about my violin and want to know more about it.
Thank you for the help!
