<p>[QUOTE="Gus Tuason, post: 4478531, member: 10012"]Looking at the joining of the head to the chalcedony backing, I think that it is agate also (a single piece). That fits with the nice setting. Looking at the fist photo, a speckling effect can be detected on the neck and face of the gentleman. To me, this points toward laser copying. The original, perhaps was shell or agate. If so, that would push the date up to the 70' +. Of course, I could be completely wrong.......[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
