Subject:Is this carving Nephrite?
Posted By: Tom Wed, Nov 24, 2010 IP: 71.223.19.58 It doesn't scratch with my Swiss army knife. Is it Nephrite? What do you think of the carving? Thanks for your input :) |

Posted By: Ernest Wilhelm Wed, Nov 24, 2010 Going by your pictures, this could be Jadeite, modern, poorly executed carving, no finesse. |

Posted By: Tom Thu, Nov 25, 2010 Thank you for your reply. Interesting how you think the carving has "no finesse". I think it's quite good. The picture doesn't really do it justice I think. I agree it is modern. |
