<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 1286345, member: 5833"]Billy, Your pix are almost too close up, but is every bead that is vaguely flower shaped different from others? That would be a good sign for hand carved. Glassy when tapped on teeth, What about if you sort of nibble at them? Any feel of graininess? My experience has been that coral does not feel as grainy to the teeth as most pearls do, but there's still some texture compared to glass, plastic or polished stone. Does it seem heavy for its size?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
