I thought I might have put it up in conjunction with a conversation about micromosaic, even thought I remembered about apologizing for its needing...
I'm still comfortable with 'some kind of seeds' on the plain beads. Rose beads still a bit tough, despite the new, excellent, photos. The way...

Seemed the best explanation to me. And not nearly as lame as the cameo is. :joyful:

Bet they originally had some kind of stand, possibly not metal.
We could use a whole thread dedicated to the question Is This Ivory?, it comes up so often & we have answered it so many times, both yea & nay,...
Could be sardonyx, but see little indicators that the forget me not is pâte sur pâte. When glass fuses to itself, hard to tell apart. Sweet...
Separate names with a comma.
