[QUOTE="Simona Buhus, post: 3352712, member: 17467"]Hello again, Thank you for sharing the links and your website, for someone new like me, this is a real learning curve. I have tried to take some fotos of my 9 karat camel's hallmark, but was not successful. I was very happy with your reply, she is a keeper for now. I found a bracelet, as I mentioned I am still at the beginning of my journey, and decided not to make a expensive mistake, I bought something relatively cheap, please find attached photos. The quality of the carving is not outstanding, the back of them are some concave some straight, some slippery and some looking like egg shell. I have tested them with a hot niddle, and it did not melt. Also, I looked at the gold metal with a magnifying glass, where the top layer chipped off I can see some red metal, similar to cooper. There is also a small hallmark. What do you think it is, and if it's real Cameo, why was it mounted in copper like material? How old do you think it is? Is there any value in this? Thank you so much. Kind regards, Simona[ATTACH=full]300012[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]300013[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]300014[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]300015[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]300017[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]300019[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]300020[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
