<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 31237, member: 51"]Thanks for all of the thoughts. This is very helpful. The consignment store one seems to be a nice piece and I believe it to be authentic, but on the link SIS provided, saw that 124-9" is also being reproduced, so I've now lost all interest in taking this gamble. I usually don't spend that kind of money unless I'm fairly sure what I'm doing, and between a soft market and possible fakes, it's definite. I'm going to pass.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is a shame about the Chinese repros. I'm surprised they even have a market for such a thing, but what do I know. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think certain pieces in the line still have a good following, Roseville was always one of my favorite styles of pottery with the wonderful colors and florals, unusual shapes to the vases, handles etc. A very creative maker.
