[QUOTE="KikoBlueEyes, post: 510536, member: 8363"]I usually don't buy Chinese Silk embroidery (not that I have a lot) without looking and feeling it to determine if it is real after buying some reproductions. :( The seller in this case doesn't know what they have as it is a Golden Pheasant. The presentation is also poor. It will probably leave me behind when the bidding starts, but I would appreciate your comments - good or bad.
