[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4606160, member: 2844"]It is a generic SW set, and many were made in the 80s and 90s, probably still are. I believe it to be NA, but not a major maker or of huge value, so no need to fake, imo. Someone would have started the fashion and others followed, but that doesn't mean they are regarded as copies or fakes. Knowing the maker won't add value to the set. Agree. There are many makers who sign LL, you have to make sure it is exactly the same mark. Roughly the same, or the same letters is no good, except if there is properly documented proof that someone did indeed change the positions of the letters. So many pieces get misattributed because people just assume it is the right mark, or just don't care as long as they can put a name on it. The examples you posted are proof of just that. It is very frustrating when you are looking for quality pieces by a certain maker.[/QUOTE]
