Dear Robert,

Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts. Respectfully, I'd like to share a different view. I must admit that I have not seen that type of style on anything exceeding 18th C and definitely not on anything from around the 1900s. Regarding the close-ups, please take a look at the below. Pardon the oversaturated photo of  mine, the camera settings were unfortunate. On the right there's a genuine piece from the collection of V&A. I am sorry but I have never seen anything like that on as I said anything latter than the 18th C and to be more precise, later than 1st half of the 18th C. I totally respect your opinion and of course I would appreciate some examples of the mentioned LVE's copies from the northern France dating from the 1900 - just for the educational purposes of course.
Kind regards,

Adrian

Hi Patrick,

Got it. It must be something to do with the website built-in script for converting jpg files uploaded by users, possibly to avoid the server being bombarded with large files. Mine were previously converted in Adobe Camera Raw to keep the quality and to lower the size. I will try and upload here two of the same files again as a test run, so next time I will do it your way. Thank you, Patrick!

Hello,

Thank you very much for your opinion, it is much appreciated.

I do also think this pair is genuine. Everything about them looks and feels real. Even just the feel of the glaze and the paste, in hands they truly feel genuine - very smooth and very fragile. Decorations are stunning and they do look absolutely correct for the period.

On the completely another note - my apologies for the quality of the photos, original ones are really good, I don't know why they look so blurry after uploading them online.

Thank you one more time and have a great weekend!
Best regards,

Adrian
