<p>[QUOTE="kentworld, post: 4583494, member: 35"]OK, I would do some research before purchasing. I'm not saying these aren't genuine Staff figs, but cats are particularly collectible (like the dogs which are probably the most copied/faked) so one should be careful. What's bothering me about this pair is the lack of wear (glaze is pretty pristine) and the pale pink and green glaze. Also, the gilding shouldn't be super bright. Staff figs were made and copied into the turn of the 20th c, so you can have 19th c copies of earlier figures. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
