Caverat Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 While visiting friends, they showed us a gift they'd received from a relative. I asked if they'd like to know more about their decoration piece and they said yes. I'd be grateful for whatever identification can be provided. It appears Moroccan and, maybe a possible fake? Thanks in advance for any assistance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 @Kane @piranha I think it is supposed to be a Cambropallas, but elements look manufactured, to me. Wait for other opinions, however.

Kane Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I agree with Cambropallas telesto, and it seems part of the cephalon is restored. 1 1 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stingray Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Just my opinion but with large items like this if they are perfect they would probably be in a museum stuffed in a cabinet. So I don’t mind restoration work as long as it’s not trying to hide the imperfections, just completes the overall example my 2 cents.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
