: I own a violin with a label that states, "Petru Guarnerius Cremonensis Silius Andreae Fecit Mantuae sub tit Sanctae Teresiae 16." It is a very old instrument but has a remarkable tone to it! It is my understanding that a label doesn't necessarily mean it is an authentic instrument. If someone knows anything about this particular label, please respond. Thanks.
