Judaica Blue
EZ Guide to Spotting a Fake Torah Yad (Pointer) or Besamim (Spice) HoldereBay is full of counterfeit Judaica for sale. Let me show you an easy way to spot most of the bogus Torah yads and besamim holders. Look at the besamim holder above. It is formed by welding together five parts: the eagle on top, the crudely-made filigree ball, the more spectacular silver ball, the little boy, and the filigree base. There are a lot of further and added decorations: the Star of David welded on top of the more prominent silver ball and respective blue and red stones. Genuine ageold silver IS NOT made by welding together little parts. The phony items on eBay use similar elements again and again. See examples of these constituents below. If your item holds any of these parts, IT IS A FAKE. Below is an example of the "sad rabbi." Torah yads and besamim holders are meant to celebrate happy occassions. Why would any Jew buy an item with a sad rabbi? Similarly, here are galore grotesque forms. One is reading a book (a siddur, perhaps?). The other looks like he just pulled through a pogrom. Again, why would any Jew buy this item? Oh, wait. Here is a great deal of joy. The happy klezmer musicians. Below are a good deal of other phony parts--an eagle on a filigree ball, a heap of little boys, a gem, a lion, a menorah, a Star of David, and the letter shin. Just mix and match them and you may have your very own piece of phony Judaica. One last thing--the bogus Russian hallmarks. Below are a few examples: For more elaborate information, see my auctiontrack website: http://auctiontrack.tripod.com Another good reference is CircCentral: http://circcentral.tripod.com
