[QUOTE="bluumz, post: 4476379, member: 649"]You have responded most kindly to the doubts expressed here, thank you for that! I suppose you must be aware that just because someone else's similar piece has been authenticated, does not mean that yours is authentic as well. As previously stated by another Antiquers member, fakes abound. Your first link offers no actual proof of authentication. It states the piece was "cleaned by Tiffany in 2011" but does not show any receipt to prove that claim. Nevertheless, Leonard Auction is a reputable Chicago auction house and likely to be trustworthy. But again, just because theirs may be authentic, does not mean every similar bracelet is authentic. Your second link does not even show any photos of marks, and the description is sparse. Just because it sold for a decent amount does not prove that the piece is indeed authentic, only that a buyer believed it may be... and how knowledgeable that buyer was is unknown. Best wishes to you for a great sale![/QUOTE]
