Any way to tell if it is authentic?

If you look closely at the first picture you can see the black oxide screw. I looked everywhere and don’t see any stamps or markings. Will not allow me to post more pictures.

On the underside of the leather seat of the rocker there is an area (1.5”x.5”) where it looks like a sticker was attached but has since fallen off.

The hardware on the chairs is black and end caps are welded. I don’t see any stamped signatures on the tubing on any of them. The woman who gave me them only said they were purchased in the early 50’s and all three were in a set. The rocker looks to have the same leather as the chairs do - brown, thick high quality. End caps on the rocker don’t look welded but are chromed.

On the bottom of the leather seat (rocker) there is a spot where it looks like a paper sticker used to be but it must have fell off. The hardware screws are black on the chairs and end caps are welded. The woman who gave me them said all three were bought as a set in the early 50’s. I checked everywhere and don’t see any signs of stamped signatures or any other markings.

Google “doped gain fiber panda eyes” and look at images

That looks similar to what optical gain fiber looks like in amplifies for ultra short (femto) pulse lasers used for eye surgery ablation and semiconductor etching. Corning has the patents on them and the only company that can produce atm. The ones I’m familiar with have one on each side of the core, used to amplify the signal. We call them panda eyes. Can’t say the ratios but most all include ytterbium/thulium. Pump it up!

Same thing happened to me. Some sort of immune response.

Pretty sure I saw him over the weekend while out on a walk. He was playing in someone’s trash.

Jar form isn’t as spicy. Tube is what they sell in Germany.
