[QUOTE="antidiem, post: 1036499, member: 30"]I'm thinking maybe the tridacna, but no idea really just a guess. I would think glass would be much easier to tell from a pearl (even one with a thin coating) and OP hasn't mentioned it could be glass, although 19.3 grams sounds like an awful lot of weight for even a giant pearl. I haven't got enough experience with weights of small items (like joolz) to guess if it could be glass from the weight - Komo - do you know? Care to hazard a guess of glass based upon the weight? What do y'all think about the chip? Does that look like glass?[/QUOTE]
