Factory violins were increasing in the early part of the 20th century. They were put together with some hand finishing unlike the china cheapos of today. They don't generally have a value that's all that high I have a Nippon and have played on another that had a nice woody sound suitable for an intermediate student or
fiddler. Mine has been very durable , was about well crafted if not greatly given any special touches and has not even developed cracks busking playing outside in cold weather. Heard imported European wood used. Because they don't attract collectors a student can step up to this better one.Mine has a golden color.

Violin in original paper box numbered 100 made in Japan I believe it was my great uncles early 1900s?
If the violin is actually labelled "made in Japan", chances are pretty good that it was not made before 1921 when the law was passed stating that all imported goods had to have their country of origin and the words "made in" printed on them in English. However, if the mark says "made in Nippon", and not "Japan", then it was probably made some time between 1914 and 1921. Before 1914, it was not required to mark the words "made in". From 1891 until then, it was only required to list the country of origin amd there was no stipulation that it had to be marked in English.

An excellent site with a plethora of well educated violin enthusiasts. http://www.allthingsstringscommunity.com/forum/topics/antique-and-vintage An explanation of the Trade Mark * Made in Nippon violins. "Reply by Paul Hostetter on March 23, 2009 at 6:08pm The logo is for the Suzuki company, the original one founded by Masakichi Suzuki and now known as Nagoya Suzuki, which was in business from 1914 on. Suzuki is a common name in Japan, so the motorcycles and the violins are not from the same company, but Shinichi Suzuki, the younger son of Masakichi Suzuki, developed the famous Suzuki Method education system. Some of the pre-WWII Suzuki violins are rather nice-sounding instruments." ~direct qoute from the site~ Basically violins marked as Made in Nippon were made between the late 1800 and 1921. Made in Japan violins were made after this time period "Generally".
