    There are a few tell-tale signs you can look for to determine whether your coral is real or fake.

You can also try the hot needle test by placing a hot needle on the cameo. If it’s plastic there will be some melting. Shop a collection of authentic cameos from some of the world’s top boutiques on 1stDibs.
