<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dgbjwc, post: 59692, member: 308&quot;]Hi Kard - if there&#039;s a pattern to pontil marks I haven&#039;t been able to figure it out.&nbsp; I&#039;ve found Chinese pieces with smooth bases and pieces by really good manufacturers with bad pontil scars.&nbsp; It may really be a question of whether you want to employ someone to smooth out the base.&nbsp; In places where labor is cheaper you could more easily afford to hire someone to do that.&nbsp; JMHO</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
