<p>[QUOTE="shamster, post: 10535028, member: 85821"]sadly they look same to my untrained eyes… also some of my combs display growth lines typical of tortoiseshell under UV so that can also be a sign of authenticity( might also depends on level of polishing). But it’s just astonishing how good these imitations are…as long as you don’t pay too much they are just as beautiful as tortoiseshell, I will still enjoy mine![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
