[QUOTE="all_fakes, post: 85829, member: 55"]Another type of duplication is found in "flats," NW coast carvings intended to be hung on the wall, and almost two-dimensional. Again, these are often simplified designs, and lesser artists will produce a lot of hummingbirds, for example, nearly identical. Same reason as above; they want to sell a lot of them in many locations. Major artists probably won't be making these, and I haven't actually seen fakes of the flats; but it is an instance where one does see duplicates by native artists.[/QUOTE]
