[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 4495672, member: 5833"]I was going to say 'stanhope', but see Roaring got there with the link. Definitely looks like elephant ivory. As for preservation of the picture inside, suspect that depends on how the picture was made & how well it is sealed in, and on the temperature & humidity of its surroundings. Short of a climate controlled environment, not sure there is much you can do.[/QUOTE]
