<p>[QUOTE="crazycatlady, post: 4534526, member: 3159"]As I'm a glutton for punishment I've acquired another necklace for re-stringing. Going by the clasp I'm assuming this is early to mid 20th century, what do you think? Also wondering if I need to test the coral, it looks real enough to me? If so which is the best way, lemon juice? milk? I vaguely recall trying both of these in the past but can't remember what happened and although I can test just one loose bead I would rather not damage it. The clasp appears to be mixed metal. Thank you![ATTACH=full]401022[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]401023[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]401025[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]401026[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
