<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IvaPan, post: 9438708, member: 78949&quot;]Thank you all for your help!</p><p><br /></p><p>Bronwen, this is what I think, too. Something does not match. It is way too nice for the setting. And also it is mounted with closed back which is also unusual, all faience scarabs I saw online are with open back, and if there are hieroglyphs on the back (usually there are), they cannot be seen. It looks very black/tarnished&nbsp; on the filigree part and also on the mark on the back. I don&#039;t think I can access the curvy areas with cloth, and I am afraid to put it in hot water or bath. I did not do anything on it and also did not researched yet, overwhelmed with work. Even could not photo it again. I will try to cope with this tomorrow and will post.</p><p>Actually, I don&#039;t have sunshine cloth and have to see how to buy. Usually I don&#039;t deal with silver.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>IMO, Lark means the grasshopper mark on the back, not the scarab.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for the tip! Very useful! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie59" alt=":kiss:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
