[QUOTE="Hi2022, post: 4382857, member: 48641"]I think it's glass. I did the toothtest described in one of the previous posts but I'm not sure... it could also be some kind of plastic that looks like glass. I can't find any markings. I tested this brooch on silver and gold, but again..... I'm not sure what to make of the test results. The scratches will dissolve within 10-15 sec. on if I use 18 kr solution. at 14kr solution they lose a little slower but certainly within 1 minute it is solved. At 10 kr nothing happens. scratches remain visible. and I scratched a lot based on these test results i think it should be between 10 -14 kr gold.. but the color is too reddish to be 10-14 kr right ? and there must be a gold marking right? .. maybe my test stone is not clean enough .. how do you clean your test stone if you don't have a special cleaning solution? I clean mine by using a few drops of 22k solution and or platinum solution[/QUOTE]
