When I cleaned it a gem fell out. They are held in by the metal not by glue and although they are foil backed they don’t look like the modern clean cut ones. Every gem has a slightly different shape and facet sizes.</p><p>So, is this a sign of age or a sign of lack of quality? Or both?</p><p>Thanks for any thoughts <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]389267[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389268[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389269[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389270[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389271[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389272[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389273[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389274[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389275[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]389276[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
