May 5, 2006, Newsletter Issue #70: Looking for Damage before you Buy
1
Tip of the Week
Looking for damage and repair on pottery or porcelain:
Run your fingertips over the edge of a plate while looking for chips but closing your eyes as you do this. Itīs amazing how well your fingers can see.
Bring a magnifying glass with you.
Examine a piece in daylight. Repairs are more likely to show up better in true light.
Tap lightly with your nail or pen over edges or spouts etc. A dull thunk instead of a clink will reveal a crack or repair.
Donīt assume the seller will be aware of repairs. Check yourself to be sure.
