As a couple of the guys have already said, the issue of this dealer having several of a very rare item is a red flag as big as a bedsheet!!!
A genuine item would be at least 55 years old and unless it was pretty well kept this one seems to be in disproportionately good order given the climate of SE Asia and the materials from which these are made.
Rock solid provenance would be the only thing to persuade me of originality here and I doubt that is available for this one?
It's possibly OK as a "gap filler" or a prop in a display of period items but in itself
Regards
Mark
