    Default Almost had an Escher

    I'm sure this was an Escher hone: http://www.ebay.com/itm/XB19a-BARBER...item5891f1dff4

    I've seen the label before, does anyone know for sure if the chalice mark belongs to the company? It was just posted and I was about to BIN but within seconds it was gone. Man.

    That is not an "escher". I have one just like it. Finishes like a thuringian, which is not bad at all...just not an escher.

    It has the E&Co goblet shield logo, I'm pretty that's an Escher you missed

    Someone should dial 911 to report a stolen stone. $49.00. Crap, jealous again.

    I couldn't make out the E&Co inside the Chalice from the pic, doesn't much matter though even a nice Thuringen razor stone is worth way more than $49

    An Escher is simply a Thuringen that someone sorted through

    Here's the picture from the auction (so we can still look at it months from now) and close-ups of E&Co goblet logos.
