Exactly!
The HOT Chinese antique market has spawned all kinds of nefarious dirty tricks and many greedy speculators looking for a big profit.
It is getting so bad that, many things are called CHINESE when they are not. Many things are called ANTIQUE when they are not.
That's just a few lies. Then we go into fakes (silver, jade, ivory, bronze, etc), recent reproductions, wrong producers - Imperial?
It is a shame. Most people, including some collectors don't have enough knowledge to tell the difference.
Speculators don't care because they are going to lie too....
