<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 931988, member: 5833"]There are a few counties not yet heard from. Distinguishing real from fake coral on photos alone can be tough. It really helps to be able to feel the weight & texture. Have found the 'tooth test' for pearls is also useful with coral. [USER=10594]@MTswirls[/USER] try nibbling at them with your front teeth. Think you will find each of the 3 has a very different texture from the others.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
