Fake Haskell Demi

Link to fake is here

The demi parure was created with some original Haskell components. The large spray was added to enhance the piece to bring more money. In a dimly lit space at an outdoor market, it fooled me. I keep it around to remind me to be more careful and bring my own light source when going to these types of markets.
