<p>[QUOTE="Dawnno, post: 610325, member: 10171"]crazy. Makes you think it would be worth more than the coral. I've been looking at the repeated shapes to see how they would have been made and don't have a clue, other than to mold, cut, heat and tumble. There appear to be repetitive "hot dog" "boomerang" "notched boomerang" "chicken leg" "porkchop" and bead shapes, oh, and 'tilde' which doesn't fit my food descriptions but does seem appropo, so I'll accede to that. Who has that kind of expertise, and can do it profitably? goes with the Czech/boho vibe, no? Who would want to? Might be during a time when coral was starting becoming scare, maybe 'protected' so that real coral was becoming scarce? Maybe Experimental? from a factory that said "let's see if we can?"... NICE piece, and at first glance thought "AJ must've lost her marbles posting that one..." ooops. No she didn't.</p><p><br /></p><p>[edit: the 'care' in choosing the perfect color too... another expert thing.][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
