The specialist needs more information

Hi Todd,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
This looks like marble or alabaster to me, rather than mother-of-pearl. Often these are signed on the back - is it possible to remove the backing to see if there is a name on the back?

Thanks!
Delia
