[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 7659026, member: 2844"]Ditto. I have faux amber beads with stripes, but slightly different. On a Yemeni necklace, possibly on a Berber necklace as well. Yemeni faux amber is usually 'genuine' phenolic resin, imported from Germany pre-1940. I wonder if these could be one of the early plastics. I call those Tibetan beads faux amber made of an 'undetermined material'. Berber women often melt plastic buckets for their faux amber beads, but I think Tnorah's beads were made in a more sophisticated way.[/QUOTE]
