[QUOTE="kyratango, post: 906481, member: 5006"]Thank you Jivvy! :happy: The older the micromosaic pieces are, the tinyest are the tesserae (little glass bits)! Those commonly encountered on EB are vintage ones, still made in Italy, but rather messy;) Thanks to YOU, Kiko! :kiss: Sunshine cloth can polish everyting "soft", it does wonder on turtle shell, ivory, plastic.... Just have to keep a clean, not blackened one for these materials:) Thanks Pearl!:) Aww, :kiss: AJ! I'm all the same as you for non precious metals, but you know I love my old silver remaining black in the recessed areas:D Thanks Johny! NO BUDDHA EARS ;):eek:!!! They are light weighted at 17 grams the pair, very comfy to wear all day long:woot::) Yep, metal... see the pics before cleaning, not the tarnish color of gold!
