<p>[QUOTE="JenQ, post: 9890863, member: 81755"]This necklace is a very dark deep red color. It seems to be pretty old. It looks translucent when I photograph it with the flash on but without the flash it just looks really dark. Someone was highly interested on eBay but I took the listing down for the moment because I do want to make sure it is Bakelite. I ran it under hot water and it did have a chemical smell but I am not sure what it is supposed to smell like. I’ve heard it compared to formaldehyde but it doesn’t smell quite as strong as that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
