[QUOTE="Arlene_V, post: 1002081, member: 129"]Thanks Kyratango, I thought it might be conch shell as well. I have a gem tester and have found it quite useful for cameos. If I am really stumped I use my gem tester. In this case the needle moves out of the glass range, but only just. With most of my shell cameos it moves quite well beyond the glass range. So not much help this time! :eek: Here's a pic of the back as requested: It is a small cameo, measuring just over 2cm long. [ATTACH=full]206673[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
