    Default Is it an escher??

    I just won a Stone off of eBay and I think it might be a escher!!! I'm hopping for a confirmation if possible??? If it's not do you have any ideas of who??
    The item number is 381894654215 if my pictures aren't good enough...

    Thank you for your help!!!

    Type of print does not look like Escher print I ever saw.

    An interesting bunch you got. I see a couple of barber hones in there. Here's hoping that's a thuri.
    Either way, the price was right.

    What's left of the print doesn't match the slip in mark's post.
    First line is illegible, maybe a capital U
    second line looks like "...and rub"
    Third line reads "...then apply"
    I couldn't make any sense out of the fourth line.

    Could be. If you want I can delete this thread so it can't be used as evidence against you, cause you stole it ! ............

    The label doesn't quite match up to the Genuine Water Hone though. I think about the only way you're going to ID that rock is by getting it lapped and cleaned up. Doesn't look like there's enough of that label left for it to be of any use.
