CONTEST COVER FILE.jpg

This is the fourth instalment of my #SpotTheFake contest and it seems to get more and more entries every week. I am excited! Thank YOU for taking part 🌸

🌸WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?🌸

I will be running #spotthefake every Tuesday, and I will post a few pics of a few antiques. It may be antique lighting, antique furniture, or even top designer furniture. One or more will be fake or reproduction.

It's up to you to #spotthefake. Post your choice in the comments, and maybe let me know why you think that.


🌸RULES🌸

  • To enter, you must upvote and resteem my post
  • Leave your choice in the comments, only one image is fake! 😍😍
  • The prize will be 5SBD, payable once the 7 days is up.
  • I will take all the correct answers, of the qualifying entries and do a random draw with this site

🌸LAST WEEK'S WINNER🌸

Well done, @seyiodus. You are the winner!

There were quite a few correct answers, but unfortunately, some entrants did not resteem, so they did not qualify for the Random Thing Picker draw.

The answer was the first image. The sconce is a fantastic reproduction piece I bought in Egypt. Cast for us at the shop, so possibly cast from an antique, but still, a reproduction. The second pic had proper gilding on, ie, it had a layer of gold leaf paper, in order to look more sumptuous. A lot of people commented on the bulbs, but it is important to remember that if a light has been restored/refurbed to go into a modern house, it will be rewired to meet all modern safety regulations.

This is tough indeed! What a great idea for a contest! I think image 2 is the original. There’s something about the texture of the brass, compared to the texture of the silvery one.

Image 1 is correct

A new face! Hello!

Thank you for entering 😊

image one is the fake one

Hi !! Thanks for your entry

you guessed correctly. You can click here to see who won!

I am happy and honored to have won the last contest. Thanks @princessmewmew for bringing in the contest.

The answer to this week contest is the image one. Image one is the fake one. My reason is that the image one is very well polished, while image two is not well polished.
Image one has more of the aluminum on the outside which brings in the modern art in it, and the brass part is just at the rim so that It won't look rough. I hope I am right. (Finger crossed)

You are correct GURL!! Find this week's winner and answers here
