thanks for your comments again!

Though there are many many fakes in chinese antique markets
we have some tricks on identify agate articles.
anyway the real old one could be told from the fakes...

I just wonder about those you-said "fake" seals ...when do you think of their age
(I mean the carving if (obviously) the bead is old )

one thing I am sure that they are not newly made.

later I will tell you why
