I see differences too, cuz I zoomed way in, and that also made me wonder if they are not hand carved. Look at the neck of the gown on the left, it looks like a 'v' neck. The one on the right appears more rounded (can't see the bottom of the 'v' anyway). Look at the waves in the end of the hair, behind the ear at the nape of the neck. On the right it appears to be 3 thinner symmetrical waves, on the left it appears to be two fuller waves. Facial features; the one on the right appears to have a more pointed chin, more defined lips, rounded nose. The one on the left has a softer chin, softer lips, straighter 'romanesque' nose (that's not a word, lol). If they were not hand carved, wouldn't the only other option then be machine made? And if machine made, wouldn't they be much closer to almost virtually identical? (Don't know about cameos much.) Imagine the skilled labor that would have to go into something hand-carved in such minute detail! Here is an example I found (bottom center of page), they are cuff links, but still a matching pair, they have subtle differences as well and are priced at $500. I just did a little googling, and found this from How to Identify Antique Vintage Sterling and Silver Jewelry Content: Look for marks, usually on the inside or clasp. If the jewelry is marked 800, it is considered COIN SILVER, and is 80 percent silver with 20 percent alloy. Jewelry must be .925 to be sterling silver in the USA. Most of the newer jewelry is marked .925 if it is sterling silver. .950 is a little better quality of sterling silver, and is found in older jewelry. .835 is common for older European silver. This offers some dating for the .835 silver in Europe. (I'm not big on yahoo's Q&A but that answer came from a librarian it says. ;) They are very pretty sweeby!

Its got somewhat of a curve to it in a couple places Leslie then comes to a slight V in the center...it has butterflies on the neckline and skirt. It IS hard to see...she will also carry this flower. DD thought it would be best because the churh says no petal dropping. The Bridesmaids will carry bouquets of fall colors. Maddie will carry a single flower, the color looks peachy here but its orangy.

Looks like good roots Understand I am only making suggestions only because It's the right time of the year and it's a hurting unit. I agree with the in season repotting and would soak the roots for an hour or longer then re-pot in a very damp with a very good to sharp draining mix then would re-intro it into fuller UV strong sun outside avoiding any direct for now ( and for the rest of the season here If me I would leave it in a early morning sunny sill and put it outside for late day on sunny days and leave outside for a full cloudy day. You might want to and can consider sitting it in a bowl of water with moving air for a day. You may want to avoid rainfall to help you water but you may need to water the soil/mix as it progresses IMO With roots seen it looks more probable that some of the foliage could re-open and look like it should maybe next season with a good indoor to outdoor transitioning your aloe should look ALOT better in that amount of time. It's growing habits show me a slow pup rate, often with more than one pup developing over a year to two it doesn't mind being a little snug in a pot to slightly crowded. Showing a pic of mine in need of re-potting next spring that got a little rain on it this AM allowing some air drying time inside as I preference no strong sun exposure while and when in this form of wet. My prefferance for watering is late day for night drying while outside while under lights I habit watering soil/mix with minimal to no top watering. In a very sharp draining mix I find them to be more guppy like in there need for water during the warmer summer months with an avg watering here of 2 -3 X a week. As your soil /mix will be different your volume and frequency for watering will also be different ( very different). Chances are good that you may have to remove a leaf or two someday if so and when reach way inside the leaf with a pair of longer sized tweezers and twist in one direction until the leaf is removed. My misbehaved leaves seem to be found and have been removed from the bottom although you can see I have one more to remove. Fun fact they are there own species and also are relatives of the Lily and could flower twice a year An inspiration no longer here on the forum they can be formed to look like.... Go ahead guess..... Give up ? an X Mass tree

I love your desk and chair, Raven! Looks like almost everyone is getting some really good deals, that's great. I'm not doing any shopping other than the basic necessities, like groceries. But I did get a good deal on some canned soups, thanks to someone here! I'd like to thank her for telling about Walmart's "Savings Catcher" app, but I don't remember who it was that posted it. Anyhow, I like to keep canned soups on hand during the cold winter months, and I had picked up 6 cans in Walmart. The only other grocery store we have had them on sale for $1.00 a can, (I wasn't even aware of their sale) so Walmart refunded $1.29 each for the 6 cans! Rusty
