[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 3010087, member: 2844"]Yes it does. You didn't say which colour it fluoresces? Carnelian can fluoresce a blueish white, or even blue. Some Indian carnelians can fluoresce in the yellow-green range. China has its own carnelians, so I guess yours fluoresces blueish white or blue? As the others said, the first two are Chinese Export. The first one is older, but my guess for the second one would be 1950s. The filigree and pearl one is marked 'silver', which used to be done a lot in Southeast Asia as well as China.
