Generally speaking, most violins in circulation are copies of various famous designs, Strad markings/labels being the most popular simply because of the name recognition. Chances are that any violin marked as such is simply a copy, more than likely a cheap copy. Consider it a knock-off, with all of the implications. If you so desire, seek out a luthier (that's a violin-maker & fixer), who will gladly tell you what you've got on your hands. Find a music shop near you that repairs instruments - they should be able to help you. Some copies are more valuable than others, and they will be able to tell if this is the case. If it's something you are thinking of purchasing (or selling), definitely seek out a professional before talking money.

I have an old violin that belonged to my grandfather. It is marked Antonius Stradiuarius Cremonensis Faceiebat Anno 16 Germany. Can you tell me about it and its value?

The Stradivarius set the standard for luthiers ever since the 1600s, so the fact that it is a Stradivarius alone makes it incredibly valuable. Be wary, though, as many luthiers tried to pass off their violins for Stradivari over the years. It is quite an early one (most were made in the 1700s) and it is very unusual to see it marked as German as Stradivarius was an Italian. I would definitely seek out an antiques expert and get a valuation. To check if it is a real Stradivarius, look for the crest. It has two strange fish on it, separated by a wave motif. Do not worry if there is no crest anywhere - they often come off with age, and later luthiers may have wanted to pass it off as their own. Another Stradivari crest is a circle with 'A S' (for Antoni Stradivari) and a cross in it.


What is a Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis Faciebat Anno 1734 made in japan really worth?

A real one is worth in the millions. However, the chance of finding a previously unknown Strad is astronomical whereas coming across a modern copy, worth less than $2000, is extremely common, just check out Ebay. Except for a few stolen Strads only 500 or so originals remain and their locations are known.
