    I'm in need of help again
    I got this bracelet in a lot. I wasn't sure if stones are natural or glass. My daughter said they look like plastic.
    Then I found one for sale that says it's lucite.
    Can y'all help me determine what it is?
    Thanks again!

    Agree with Hollyblue, they are bits of agates, probably glued onto the bracelet.

    A friend of mine made bracelets like these in the late 60s/early 70s, but I can't vouch for the age of the bracelet because I'm not a jewelry person, so wait for others on that.

    Agates. A little Montana souvenir, I would think.

    I'm still learning to identify types of stones. Like I also have this one and not sure what type of stone it is.

    That ebay listing threw me off with "lucite" in title.
    Thank y'all. Any book recommendations to learn more about stones like agate, jasper, turquoise,etc?

    Agate. The bracelet itself was sold as a kit in the sixties. You glued your choice of stones on. I've one my mama did and some others I've bought.

    Thx. There's just so much out there it's hard to find just one or two that can be really helpful.
    I just bookmarked this one
