Ask anything

  • Glenn asked

    My friend has this Neptune bronze door knocker that he has had for 60 years and want to sell it, how can I determine if it if fake or real

  • Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen answered

    Hi Glenn, The object might have a stamp or mark which indicates its origin. Otherwise, I would advise to bring it to a dealer in antiques or an auction house where a specialist could examine it. Good luck! Kind regards, Els
