<p>[QUOTE="Joan, post: 9571333, member: 5398"]Thank you [USER=36]@evelyb30[/USER] for mentioning chrysoprase being a hot stone in the Depression era. I have an art deco pin that I always wondered about, so I took a closer look at it hoping the green translucent stones might be chrysoprase, but unfortunately they're glass. I should have known they'd be glass because it also has rhinestones and an inexpensive setting. It's missing some rhinestones and a center dangle, but I like the design and wish I could restore it, but I don't have any flat-back rhinestones the right size in my junk jewelry stash. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]460022[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
