Subject:Is this a jade carving?
Posted By: Darius Fri, Jun 06, 2014 IP: 109.150.178.25 I was given this stone carving of a horse and was wondering whether it had any value? I tried the scratch test and it didn't even get marked, it's really cold, even on a day like today, 22 degree celcius it's cold. Does it have any value whatsoever?

Posted By: Ernest Wilhelm Sat, Jun 14, 2014 Most likely not, with the high gloss it could very well be glass.Another point..it is not an antique.
