Kept it for 25 years and then gave it to a friend last year. It was worth a small fortune but I never wore it and it looked more beautiful on her than it did me!Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10924547158802290714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685880837517606009.post-32872386974961189352011-07-21T08:49:49.392+08:002011-07-21T08:49:49.392+08:00I'd love to know how to tell amber from plasti...I'd love to know how to tell amber from plastic. (No insinuations regarding this shop). I once bought two necklaces in a thrift shop hoping like heck they were amber. Nope. To the naive shopper plastic and amber have similar weight and amber can be clear without bubble or striations. How is one to know for sure? In the meantime, love the hugeness of this particular offering.Oakland Daily Photohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352365270299187377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2685880837517606009.post-51005102083372059122011-07-21T06:35:26.090+08:002011-07-21T06:35:26.090+08:00Amber: It is a gum or something?
