<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 64029, member: 54"]Thanks for testing. When I look at photo 9267 in particular, it looks to me like a casting, whatever it is made of. There seem to be some bubbles in it. One made of real stone would have to be carved and I can't see carving tool work in it. I'd really like to be wrong and have it be a real antique but I still don't see that. I'll keep looking to see if I can find anything more definitive. I've heard that mixtures of powdered stone and epoxy are used to make decorative objects by casting-wonder if yours is like that?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
