They May Be Detected by the Hole
Drilled Through Them.
The means of ascertaining the genu-
ineness of pearls, which are frequently
initiated with marvellous skill, is es-
pecially important to the layman, even
though the jeweler may quickly detect
them. limitations are usually lighter
than real pearls and generally are brit
tie, although some are made solid of
fish scales and do not break so easily
while the holes, which in the real pearl
are drilled very small and have a sharp
edge, are in the false larger and have q
blunt edge AS rule, the imitation
pearls are like hollow spheres of glass
colored internally with coating imi-
tating the orient of natural pearl.
The manufacture of these articles
embraces two series of operations-the
production of the sphere and the intro
duction of coating. The spheres are
produced by the glassblower, who by
aid Of an enameler's lamp soldiers the
extremity of tube when the sub
stance Is of the right consistency. In
this way are obtained very regular lit
tie spheres that serve for the compost
tion of the ordinary quality of false
pearls.
In the more beautiful limitations the
tube employed is slightly opalescent,
and the glassblower, besides, gives to
the little spheres while they are yet
malleable certain slight perceptible in
equallties Of surface by gently tapping
them with a small iron bar This gives
them still greater resemblance to
natural pearls, which are very seldom
