His comment signaled to the audience that the item was likely not authentic. Its vibrant colors and lifelike design made it quite appealing. However, this was an artifact evaluation, not everything was worth bidding on.
Naomi smiled subtly and refrained from bidding. She not only sensed the artifact's fortune but also discerned its authenticity from its texture. Those experienced in the antique world knew that truly old items never looked so pristine.
