saschaw Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 (edited) On Ebay Germany, this bar is offered. It looks quite good, but the seller is a well-known tailer who has - if I remember correctly - not sold one authentic bar, but many newly sewn ones. Is this a nice Godet one, or is he a damn good faker? (the stichting on the left and right of the reverse?!)

Tom Y Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 The running stitch on the reverse looks pretty funky, especially for a Godet. You'd expect a whip stitch. I'd give it a miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacky Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 I would think this is only worth the value of the individual pieces!!The stitching is indeed not correct and constant everywhere.....One would expect to find a overall constant appearance....Kind regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerd Becker Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 I think, i would have returned this bar to Godet Thats not the typical Godet mounting style in my opinion, so i would give it a miss.Gerd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Russell Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Agree with the others and from the pics, the backing looks awful 'felty' rather than wool. Too fuzzy from what you normally see. Could be original parts with modern backing and a scrapped Godet label lifted off a trashed bar? Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudio Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 (edited) Mmm... I didn't like this spange from the beginning for the already mentioned comments. To put better into words what we are trying to say, I am posting a couple of example of my "real" almost unworn Godet medal bars' backings for comparison.Btw I think the medal are originals.Ciao,Claudio Edited February 26, 2007 by Claudio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
