a week ago , after reading all that was around the bush on this topic on the Internet, came to the conclusion that this story is not quite all-clear .
There is no doubt that everyone who is seriously interested in Faberge, the story and the fact that the subject is put on the auction , they knew .
The auction is open to all comers, and .... 62,000 pounds ....
Not sure what this object is ever called original Faberge and sold for millions.
This is a new opportunity for litigation and almost winning the former owner .
Strange all this weird ...
