Thank you! I am very happy. :joyful: Even if she were glass, I don't think I would have sent her back. I will get the gold tested too to see what...
Well would you look at that. With the power of Dawn, the maple syrup be gone! :smug: It came off pretty quickly haha. @Bronwen I am super...
Oh, Bronwen, I could not have said it better. :hilarious: Thank you for your opinion. It is kind of a grayish-orangy color and it is indeed a...
Good morning! She wasn't supposed to come in until Monday but I guess USPS had mercy on me lol. The grunge is real guys but to me it does look...
On a side note to glass: I purchased these earrings a long while ago and the only way I could tell it was glass, was because of the tiny scratches...
Yeah that is true, but I am not sure if I could 100% tell the difference in person either. Once the other one comes in, what should I look out...
Haha, don't worry! From what I've read in this forum, you seem to know a lot about cameos so I never doubted it ;)
One of my ladies came in today :rolleyes: freshly cleaned: I love it:shame: [ATTACH]

I am not sure if I could pull that off haha ;) I saw the post of your Diana, the one that was really dirty (and looked like glass) and turned out...
Thank you :-) I bought it. I don't have a hard stone cameo, so this would be my first. I do like the figure and I'm especially fond of the hair. I...
Hey everyone :-) This cameo is listed as hardstone, but is it really? What do you think based on the photos? I feel like it seems too neatly done...
Thanks, all.
No, the area is closed up under the stones
yeah I know, but from what I understand platinum reacts quicker. Its iffy because it does look like silver to me too and I will probably acid test...
Huh, I am not a chemistry buff, but I am pretty sure platinum (and other metals from the platinum group) act as a catalyst to decompose hydrogen...
Hey guys! Just wanted to show you this ring that I purchased as "gold/silver ring with marcasites". I do not believe those a marcasites at all....
