[QUOTE="mirana, post: 9596309, member: 79705"]The "lines" are because she is made of conch shell and not agate/stone. You can see Bronwen talk in detail about the material [URL='https://cameotimes.com/index.php/reference/materials-guide?start=1']on her website[/URL]. How much these go for depends on the gold content they're set in but they go for low hundreds typically. They might reach asking of $500 if the seller thinks they're coral, but of course they aren't (see Bronwen's site). She's around 1900, yep. She is pretty!
