[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 395397, member: 2844"]Thank you for the compliment, and it was a pleasure. I have never seen them with the bottom part either. A Safi teapot is pretty rare, the combo is even rarer, it seems. The stones are glass, imitation turquoise and coral, two protective stones in Berber culture. The stones are mainly protective because of their colours, so glass serves the same purpose. Many cultures have this appreciation for red and blue stones.[/QUOTE]
