[QUOTE="IvaPan, post: 9423739, member: 78949"]Any, thank you very much for your detailed answer! It could very well be glass, but as far as I can judge the pin back is not glued but is nailed with two nails, one next to the clasp and another one on the opposite side, behind the catch of the pin. The "stone" is very smooth, like lacquered, and has strange pattern beneath the lacquer, spotted with dark spots on brownish surface, and looks like fur of a cheetah. My photos are not good, will try to make a photo of the "stone" without reflection. P.S. Definitely not glued as it does not fit completely at the metal back.[/QUOTE]
