[QUOTE="spirit-of-shiloh, post: 16091, member: 32"]Thanks for the tips :) I do notice that my enlarged hematite looks like the carved areas are raised instead of deep cut? The crystal looks great though :) Yes my Uncle was a jewler and then he was interested in watch making. My Mom told me that he had a Jewish friend who was a watch maker and that the watch makers didn't didn't care for gentiles to work in their shop. So my Uncle learned some yiddish, enough to get him by and was passed off as a Jew :D So my Uncle learned on the bench along with the pros...they just thought he was quiet so he was never found out;)[/QUOTE]
