[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4299741, member: 2844"]It just makes me sad that people will buy from these sellers in good faith. Unfortunately, good faith doesn't work in some fields, and antiquities especially is a minefield. This link to an article which I posted in your 'Egyptian' thread can be useful too, to see how some fakes are mass produced: [URL='https://news.artnet.com/art-world/manhattan-dealer-busted-selling-hundreds-fake-cookie-cutter-antiquities-says-manhattan-d-2002850?utm_content=from_artnetnews2&utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=EUR%20August%2027%20AM&utm_term=EUR%20Daily%20Newsletter%20%5BMORNING%5D']https://news.artnet.com/art-world/manhattan-dealer-busted-selling-hundreds-fake-cookie-cutter-antiquities-says-manhattan-d-2002850?utm_content=from_artnetnews2&utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=EUR August 27 AM&utm_term=EUR Daily Newsletter [MORNING][/URL] This also serves as a warning to buyers when sellers use this New York dealer as 'provenance', which I have seen in auctions.[/QUOTE]
