<p>[QUOTE="Van_Poperin, post: 3106967, member: 16501"]Being strict, she isn’t the same quality as a Royal Dux vase, for example (look at their detailing for comparison), but I know what you mean when you call her perfect. I think these pieces have cachet because the typical art nouveau woman is always in demand (for all they’re so common); they are prized by non-antique/ceramics folk and collectors alike. I’ve got plenty of cheap/imperfect beauties, and I’m very proud of them! Without looking at her in hand I’d agree with [USER=15277]@John Brassey[/USER] and put her at £20, but she has potential beyond that. I’ve seen very obvious knock-offs of good names go on eBay for £50-£60, obviously to people who just like them (and there’s nothing wrong with that).</p><p>Same old rules, every time: 1) buyer beware! Do as much research as possible 2) buy what you like![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
