<p>[QUOTE="ValerieK, post: 4411304, member: 7360"]As in my reply to Aquitaine, the holes are very shallow and just part of the design. I am no expert in this, but it does feel to me like stone rather than ivory, hard and polished to a glossy surface. I really hope it isn't ivory; the only thing I have to compare is an antique Indian egg cup, which is nothing like this, but I'm hoping that may be bone![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
