<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 337421, member: 5833&quot;]Coral items are not on eBay&#039;s list of prohibited items &amp; are sold quite openly, including, to my dismay, large carved pieces coming out of China that are new.&nbsp; Evidently they believe there is nothing to enforce in this regard.&nbsp; This is eBay US; I have no knowledge of the policies of eBay in other countries.</p><p><br /></p><p>As with ivory, there are types of work, like the bacchante cameo example, that just aren&#039;t being done any longer &amp; haven&#039;t been in many decades.&nbsp; Given the opportunity, I discourage the purchase of modern coral, but see no usefulness in restricting pieces that are 70 &amp; more years old.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
