And finally. Maybe. Nice coral and what do we think the bracelet stones are?

    May be Confetti glass on the bracelet.

    Or lucite. The last one oddly looks like orange plastic of some sort "carved" like a traditional meerschaum necklace. Galaith maybe? They have the old school "hidden" barrel clasp on them.

    I think glass, made to look like an odd kind of Opal. They’re cold. I thought the carved ones were coral, I’ll have another look. They’re not stinky and they’re heavier than they appear.

    hm. You’re right, some kind of much older carved synthetic. I unscrewed the clasp.

    Those are gorgeous.:happy: The coral too of course, that goes without saying. (said it anyway)
    I have seen similar ones to the carved beads before, but can't remember what they were described as. Have you tested for Bakelite, just to be sure?

    I’ve not tested, I shall do that. The true coral needs a restring, no surprises there!

    Those green cabs are fabulous! They do have an opally look to them. I had some like the bottom ones and I think the consensus was Galalith or similar.
