<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 673641, member: 5833"]I think not all parts are made of the same material. The cuff part has to be a plastic of some sort, probably more like Celluloid than Bakelite. The 2 halves of the locket compartment could be Vulcanite or similar, while it's conceivable the floral decoration on top is carved jet. Look for signs of molding vs. carving.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
