<p>[QUOTE="laura9797, post: 1623078, member: 9323"]So I am cataloging a necklace that only bares the mark of Gasia which is over in the UK. It is oxidized silver and yellow gold with small white diamonds and hung with either amber acid carved or cameo type glass. Is there a way to test what it is? It really doesn't feel like glass but I am not sure if amber has a type of feel to it. Is there a correct name for this technique when it is done on a gemstone? I have a presidium tester but nothing is registering on it. Thanks so much![ATTACH=full]233296[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]233298[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]233300[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
