Bill,

You may be right about the color differences in the stone being most of the variation in colors of carved parts. Steatite doesn't take dye very well, but maybe just well enough for the red surface treatment. I am ready to be wrong about glued-in shell!

I hope the owner will come back after a scratch test and have something of a scientific basis to go on.

Best regards,
Judy
