<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Houseful, post: 420435, member: 1067&quot;]The edges look pretty sharp, probably too sharp for ebony or bog oak. Could they be some type of black horn? Having only ever tried the baking soda on some cherry Bakelite beads I wouldn’t feel comfortable saying go ahead though I didn’t see any damage on the beads afterwards. For the accumulated dirt I would use a wooden cocktail stick covered in soft cotton fabric, maybe moistened slightly but until you know what they are made from it might be a bit risky in case they swell up. They are lovely.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
