EKII Spange Check Please.

[Blackopps]

Hi All, I have been offered an EKII Spange just like this one. But jon said it was a Detlev Fake! Please can you confirm that this is still considered a FAKE! Thanks all.

Jon's Photo's with thanks again.

I haven't seen one of these for a while, but yes, a bad one.

I forget why Detlevs name became pinned on these? Memory refresher please...

It still is a fake.

You never know these days, do you?

You never know these days, do you?

You're right on that one Trev!
But I haven't changed my mind on that one either (so far )

@Chris : Detlev had a section where he showed the fake of the week.
But looking at this he also had one for sale at some point in time...

I guess all one can do is keep the questionable ones (just in case new evidence arises such as in the threads currently running) and destroy/ collect (and mark) the real fakes sold today as reproductions. At least that way the possible (well you never know) ones aren't destroyed and future generations aren't fooled by the repros.

Thanks Ben, I wasn't sure if there was more to it that I'd forgotten, too much info and not enough memory :-)

Tony that is so true. But I still have a couple of flochs in the healing box that I hope will transform into good pieces one day. LOL

You're welcome Chris

Well, hold on to them and maybe some day...

Thank you all again, I will give this one a miss. Blackopps
