[QUOTE="'Nuff_Said, post: 29180, member: 181"]Thank you Peggy. The stopper is interesting. It's not designed to be pulled out, just pops-up a tiny bit and swivels. @Greg, thanks. The amber is not as dark as it appears in that photo. I'll take some better images in the morning under natural light. There is also about 3 or 4 pieces of blue amber and a couple pieces green (didn't know of such color amber until I googled). @CX, thank you!
