Book Description
This is the most informative and practical guide to the deceptions, fakes, and not-quite-genuine pieces to be found in the trade. Written by some of the world’s leading authorities, and all in color, it covers furniture, metalware, porcelain, glass, clocks, and toys, as well as more specialized areas such as netsuke and decoys. Illustrations show buyers what to look for, what to beware of, and how the faker’s materials and techniques differ from those of genuine articles.
