<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Joan, post: 3033806, member: 5398&quot;]I kind of wondered about the stones in the first example because they&#039;re all exactly the same shade of green. For the second example, do you mean because it&#039;s Egyptian Revival style it can&#039;t be AH?&nbsp; I saw several pieces when I was searching online that were called Austro Hungarian Egyptian Revival--I know many things are misidentified and people include certain key words just to draw viewers. The British-made pieces I saw with demantoids were usually referred to as Victorian, which seems possible since demantoids were discovered in 1868, but then maybe the Victorian term is accurate but not demantoid. It seems I remember someone on this forum pointing out that Christies, or some auction house, doesn&#039;t identify gemstones now for a lot of their pieces, but uses kind of a non-specific description. Maybe they&#039;ve been proven wrong too many times?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
