Could I possibly get some info on my violin?
I bought it a year or so ago for £2200 and was told it was possibly around 1780s? 

The label is barely visible on the inside so I’ve edited the photo to make it appear more visible. Im well aware it’s not a genuine stainer and the labels are often faked. I’m an amateur vet med student who plays for fun so this is purely out of curiosity as I’d love to know a bit more about my instrument.

It has a beautiful sweet and mellow sound so it certainly suits my needs as a non professional!

I would expect that your violin is South German or Austrian, from ca. Mid 18th C The use of apocryphal Stainer labels was so widespread that it is impossible to ascribe these violins to a particular maker

Agree that this looks like a nice wnd well preserved violin from maybe the late 18th century. The decoration around the border of the label looks like Mittenwald style, what could give a hint, but by the photos it's not possible to tell wether it is original or a reproduction.
