Agree with Xristina, 'goldstone', which is a man made substance that incorporates copper flakes in a resin. Have read it was developed quite a long time ago & is a fairly difficult process, or was difficult to develop. There is also a blue version you don't see as much. And look like worry beads to me too.

 

Thanks to both of you!!

 

That looks like an elastic bracelet with stretched-out elastic. They were popular for a few years; this would have cost a fair bit new. The goldstone glass has been around since Victorian times, and it's always been sold like a semi-precious stone. I'd be cutting it up for the beads, since the elastic appears shot.

 

The beads are inexpensive today,most are probably made in China. https://www.firemountaingems.com/it...MI2sP3mY2e4QIVDdVkCh3ExgrPEAkYBCABEgIP2PD_BwE

 

Well when the buyer gets it eventually, they can resting it to make whatever they like.

I tried restringing something a few years back & it was a miserable failure.
I can't imaging how bad it would be if I tried it now with my fingers as bad as they are & not being able to bend the first knuckle on 3 of the fingers.

 

It wouldn't be a tough job for me, but not worth the effort. No one wants the bracelets any more, the shark has been jumped, but the beads are nice.
