hel_anaPossibly one of the most interesting thing I've come across in the past few days has been a recipe for fake pearls.
Drea Leed has translated and put on her site a copy of the Allerley Mackel, a 16th C collection of household recipes.
The recipe in question is entitled "To make pearls which look like real pearls in all respects". I'm seriously tempted, though not sure where I could get quicksilver.
Anyone got any ideas?
