So you´ve been'leucodonised' as well. I'm told that you can utilise a
rotating diamond-edged saw to make the cuts (carefully) and finish them
off with a hand file. To get the spots right you just have to be a little
clever with an air spray gun.

Many of the Cebu shell dealers are neighbours of the same 'enterprising'
people who make 'ethnic' jewelry - fake blue and red coral
