This violin , bought in Colorado, has no label. It looks like a nice newer Italian instrument. I will not actually be able handle the violin for 2 months (while in France). I am wondering what clues might narrow down the maker or city . The whiteness of the dings might indicate a very thin ground or a spirit varnish ground? It seems there is a ground looking at the scroll etc. Perhaps the scroll has something distinctive...I am not knowledgeable enough on scrolls and makers. The F holes have blackened edges, but nothing else is blackened. Any help much appreciated. https://www.dropbox.com/sc/1xctgpse3cgutw8/AAAN9sB8xNBzr5YyfntoPLgJa
