Bron, Once again my gut feeling kicks in! If it to good to be true.......I look forward to seeing your new webpage. These kinds of fakes are as much a problem as the junk pieces so prevalent on ebay!

Hi,
They are fakes.
Quite well made.
I'm creating a page on my website for various types which are coming
out of this factory. Which include the Padi Aset fakes.

I have two shabtis similar to the one depicted and the same size. If
you saw a photo of them you would swear they are genuine. But I have
my doubts even though they came from an ADA member.

found to be so there will be dealers jumping on them, while keeping
opinions on authenticity to themselves!

Honor Hall in San Francisco during the British Museum renovation
tour. Also found one on the Petrie Musuem site.

trust or be able to see them in person. Just my opinion. If the
resident experts give them a thumbs down, that would reinforce my
belief in buying only from top knotch dealers!!!!
