<p>[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 495391, member: 301"]Not all Handel shades are marked. Ones that were done for special orders were marked but not numbered. Others that had flaws and imperfections were kept by employees or given away; those shades were not marked at all. It is also possible that during the course of 100 years that the mark faded or was removed during cleanings. So it’s a bad sign if the shade isn’t marked, but it is not a conclusive sign that the shade is a reproduction.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
