<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 407291, member: 5833"]Indian in appearance. Certainly meant to look like ivory, but the growth patterns are so pronounced, it gives me doubts. And if it's a fake, then I would guess Chinese meant to look like Indian ivory. As I do with most natural organic materials, suggest you try the tooth test. If it feels merely smooth, might be ivory; if it feels virtually glassy, have to think something artificial.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
