I also wrote them about it, although probably with less detail & less certainty than you did. Not nearly so long ago as that. Five years maybe?...
Good Heavens! What a lot of work you put in. Hope you did it primarily for your own records. Consignor must have set reserves that were way out...
To me, the question is not Book's as to why anyone makes such things so much as why does anyone set them? I have long said that cameo...
Pepper is every bit as knowledgeable as I am & I agree with her on this one: cameo definitely much newer than the mount. My opinion only differs...
I sent Pierluigi the link for your post. How in the world did this piece get so filthy?!
Only Living Boy in New York. Weather & transit really are about all the news I need, but public radio keeps me up on the bigger affairs, with BBC...

The subject of this whole thread - Eyes Have It: Are These Intaglios the Same? - is the intaglio set in a gold fob seal that was sold as 15K....

Bronwen humbly admits she did not look closely at the title, or she would have seen that you already know perfectly well it's a bookend. Now, on...
