She's all mother of pearl inlay & I think Pearl is beautiful, or will be if she can be cleaned up. What do I do with her, is there something special to do for her inlay? I'm @ sea on this. I've been lurking & listening & know this is the bestest place to start!! I'll try to upload the pics. The #'s on her are 4381901 445901. I hope all who see will also help if they can -- I'm overwhelmed w/ the responsibility for her
