Default Is a Corsini a Corsini?

I've read some posts about Ken's Corsini basses. My recently-acquired Matthias Kriner is also labeled as a Corsini. Is this a generic label or a name that describes specific traits and design elements?

If it helps, mine is fully carved, likely Romanian. Spruce top with round poplar back and poplar sides, violin corners, mensure around 41.25".

Here is a link to some photos:

I understand this bass was set up initially in the Kolstein shop but not sold by that shop. The endpin was changed out to a New Harmony carbon fiber model and the tailpiece was changed from a Kolstein to a conventional model.
