scratch test with quartz point.

All of us could easily make a blunder from a photo. I have known Matt for over fifteen years. I have immense faith in Matt's hands on knowledge, and opinion. Like you, Matt, and I were obsessed with dZi before there was such thing as a modern reproduction. If Matt says the bead he photographed is original historical dZi, it very most likely is.

Peacefully, Jake.
