<p>[QUOTE="Raccoon1977, post: 9606658, member: 17253"]so that’s the thing about not being able to load nice, high-quality photos on here, you can’t blow them up! The setting is definitely not rolled gold, it’s actually plated and there is some chipping of the gold plate. I fried my presidium the other day, but I did put my little diamond tester on the stones and it didn’t move at all so they’re definitely glass. The metal the rhinestones are setting in is appears to be pot metal as well. I didn’t test it since it is recessed and I can’t get to it without damaging the brooch.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
