๐ธLAST WEEK'S WINNER๐ธ
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.
๐ธ SPOT THE FAKE #04 - ๐ธ BRASS and ALUMINIUM SHIP's LIGHT ๐ธ
I am training you all to be antique dealers! This weeks items are Veryyyy similar, but one is a proper vintage ship's light, that would have been lighting up the decks on a ship, and the other is an AMAZING copy!
To enter, you must UPVOTE, RESTEEM and guess the correct image! Answer will be revealed this time next week!

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

Hi !! Thanks for your entry
you guessed correctly. You can click here to see who won!
the aluminium one is the real one image 1. I could explain in my lanquage why, but have no idea what vleugelmoer is in english :-)
Sounds like something is being beaten? In afrikaans moer is a rude way to say beat someone up!
Lol no, vleugel is wing and moer uh a screw on peace ๐ i ask my husband later, he is english.
Moer is also old ugly dutch for mother. Not to your mother, when sombody calls you something, you can say : say yhat to your old moer... and maybe that is afrikaans: help something to the malle moer.... breaking something ... malle is than crazy...
Hahaha! Lost in Translation, episode one! You will have to ask your hubs about the vleugel moer
