Again - cannot believe they bothered to fake this one !
I have always thought/felt that the fakers chose culturally-neutral scarves as victims. - abstract = faked, floral = faked, toys themed = faked , animals = faked , uber French scarf = not faked
BUT this one is arguably the only (?) Franco-German (not Swiss) themed Hermes scarf . I LOVE this design, the story is so rich, but UNIVERSAL appeal, I think not ... I learned about the strange Voltaire vignettes as a child - you gotta be a Voltaire fan to love - not exactly a mainstream interest
Stuns me that they picked this one - and recently too - the design is from the 1990s but a 55 in fake would be recent
I am gobsmacked!
I had been watching this for the sheer perverse fun of it, and now it is "lost or broken" LOLOLOL
