I never thought about fire damage. That would explain why the white shiny haze is one (fused) to the carnelian. Do you know any solution to this problem? Do you think the white powdery stuff on the other scarab (frit?) could be fire also?
Yes, Kim, I am sure the carnelian is carnelian -- it has a small chip that occurred after the white shiny stuff got on it. It is carnelian no doubt.
Thank both of you.
