[QUOTE="BoudiccaJones, post: 4299069, member: 5592"][CENTER][SIZE=5][COLOR=#ff0080]Hello friends xx I picked this up yesterday, on the off chance it was meershaum. ( For some reason,always wanted one.) It's got issues,obviously,bit broken off. I did some *research* and what I've seen doesn't exclude meershaum but you know I get confuzzled easily. I took a black light to the stem ( should have taken a pic!) and it did have a sort of blue-ish haze. It's very light. I read that fakes were made of plaster of paris sometimes, I don't think it's that. It's 7 inches underneath ( 19 cms) and the handsome face is just under 3 inches (7 and half cms) and in total height it's about five inches (13 cms) No seam x [IMG]https://scontent.fbrs1-2.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/240881689_10159848197894283_2943848239628613087_n.jpg?_nc_cat=104&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=vPR6K7BCGgEAX8JLsFB&_nc_ht=scontent.fbrs1-2.fna&oh=487d1efd3377f16716bad91f3737d34b&oe=61507AFE[/IMG] [IMG]https://scontent.fbrs1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/240809097_10159848197949283_8727659535716115920_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=refK37n8EQQAX_QB8MX&_nc_ht=scontent.fbrs1-1.fna&oh=747ccfeacc2fbf54a9e2f36b96035438&oe=615117F8[/IMG] [IMG]https://scontent.fbrs1-2.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/241032462_10159848198129283_5163519754435621582_n.jpg?_nc_cat=105&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=HN8QsoQBYcQAX8ntkj7&tn=xMvkbjS132s6R8lm&_nc_ht=scontent.fbrs1-2.fna&oh=96e21d2c52318ed48d008d61bb2c2e73&oe=6151CD1C[/IMG] [IMG]https://scontent.fbrs1-2.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/240974927_10159848198224283_6484170898638474166_n.jpg?_nc_cat=111&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=WU1810aFGt4AX-YI1JB&_nc_ht=scontent.fbrs1-2.fna&oh=85e78e300de6f339c585fd43e9c31112&oe=61516F21[/IMG] [IMG]https://scontent.fbrs1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/240842918_10159848198324283_4152002319558864665_n.jpg?_nc_cat=102&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=hJGHdQLPEXkAX9BtF-D&_nc_ht=scontent.fbrs1-1.fna&oh=99adcce4f648d15ca0c119a19be12283&oe=6152F2B1[/IMG][/COLOR][/SIZE] [COLOR=#ff0080] [SIZE=5]( Got more pics if required) [/SIZE] [SIZE=5]Whilst I'm here, what's this bottle thing?
