Message I would question the wave-forms around the neck, and some elements look more like late 17th century. It is otherwise well painted and well fired, but any such piece should be examined personally before purchase: for major repairs/repainting, other damage, actual appearance, etc. Buying a fake or non-whole piece can be merely throwing away money since getting refund can be expensive and impossible. Even the auction site's promise via its payment-processing division is pretty empty since you must pay for expert appraisals to prove the fakery (the auction site is well known not to accept such appraisals as proof of fraud). It may be against the auction-site's rules to stop an auction for sale to selected bidder unless it was a "buy it now" sale. You can complain to the site operator. Post a Response |
