<p>[QUOTE="johnnycb09, post: 182606, member: 27"]I think shes lovely. The necklace looks like an add on,just doesnt seem to fit. Love the enameling, and it certainly looks like ivory, but that crack up the back has me concerned it might be newer (wich of course could mean 50 years old ) . I heard somewhere that artisans wouldnt have used wood that was newer,precisely because it could crack as it dried out.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
