<p>[QUOTE=&quot;verybrad, post: 94354, member: 37&quot;]Must say that they look better in the auction photos than those posted here.&nbsp; I still do not like the finish on these, nor the arms and candle cups, and that is probably why they did not meet reserve at auction.&nbsp; Most of the signs of age have been obliterated by overzealous restoration.&nbsp; As I said above, the writing on the back seems to be the primary sign of age.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is no substitute for a hands-on evaluation.&nbsp; We are limited here by what we can see in the photos presented and the information provided.&nbsp; Your seller is probably correct in saying that there are not experts in Nordic antiques on this forum.&nbsp; There are some people that are pretty good at getting to the bottom of things if presented with enough information.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
