[QUOTE="RachelW, post: 9421816, member: 15376"][CENTER]I spotted this delft candle holder yesterday as well. The tag on it said it was 18th, but I wanted to do my own research, especially before putting down 30 for it. This morning I've done said research and lo and behold it looks like the tag spoke the truth. As it said, I think we're looking at a Pieter Kocx piece (1701-1722). [ATTACH=full]432729[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432730[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432731[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432733[/ATTACH] I then find in a [I][B]different[/B][/I] booth a candle holder with the [B][I]same [/I][/B]mark. [ATTACH=full]432739[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432740[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432741[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]432742[/ATTACH] I know Delft copies were and are made all the time, but were there forgeries made like this and if so how can I tell if these are genuine? I cannot find a single example of these anywhere on google, the ones I find are smaller and far more simple in design. APK Marks to compare: [URL]https://delftsaardewerk.nl/en/mark/apk[/URL] Side note, but out of curiosity, I have eclectic taste at best, and I'm not sure these will actually fit in when I get around to decorating, do these have any sort of value that I can justify the total 60e purchase price? Thank you all for being a self control resource before getting my mother to drive me back the 40 minutes to the store! :hilarious:[/CENTER][/QUOTE]
