<p>[QUOTE="LucyLocket, post: 9854768, member: 13859"]Don't think there is any Bakelite in this lot - the orange mottled one has a seam inside & is stamped Hong Kong, the cream & the two reddish ones also have seams & what I think of as a "pontil" mark inside though that probably isn't the right term! The solid silvery one is actually quite brassy - especially on one side where the silver colour has worn away. </p><p>I took my chance buying a couple of large lots of mixed bangles very cheaply so I'm quite happy with the few amongst them that I really like! Of course all the seams & flaws don't really show in a photo so I think they look better than they actually are![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
