<p>[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 320705, member: 33"]I think it's more likely to be shell, but that's only because I've never seen a tiny stickpin stone cameo that had that much detail carved into it. I have seen shell ones that do. But my experience with the stone stickpin cameos is limited. (I own just one of them, and I think it was actually a button converted to a stickpin.) I would like to see more thoughts on this one, though.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, for cleaning purposes I think the suggestions above would be safe, no matter which it is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
