Excerpt from Exhibition of "Fakes" And Reproductions
Some of these reproductions have deceived the best experts. AS stated in Lady Charlotte Schreiber's Journals, this noted collector, as long ago as 1878, bought in Madrid some lovely vases. A friend after wards expressed a doubt as to their genuineness, and when She and her husband arrived in Paris they took the cover of one of the vases to the manufacturer, who owned himself the maker of it. So those vases, She writes, have proved themselves all wrong and cannot go into the collection. I fear we Shall lose heavily on them, but they are so pretty that I regret them more for their beauty than for the money's worth. This has been rather a costly lesson.
