[QUOTE="Jivvy, post: 764973, member: 8184"]Sounds like the two GrayLady pieces I originally thought were resin. And while I know you ([USER=5833]@Bronwen[/USER] ) and I have had the conversation in private, I'd like to point out here, that the "little beads" are actually from voids in the mold. Just like the end product (cameo), the mold is also "cast" and the voids were most likely caused by popped air bubbles when that mold was the "end product". Fill the mold to make a cameo, fill the voids = little beads. This information courtesy of Mr Jivvy who has cast both molds and end-products in a variety of materials. Any errors are due to my inability to maintain focus during lessons. :eggface: Totally agree with that![/QUOTE]
