<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 709445, member: 36"]White labradorite, aka rainbow moonstone (the current trade name) on the pin, and probably swirled bakelite on the green necklace. Test those with a damp q-tip/cotton swab dipped in baking soda. Rub hard and sniff at the same time; you ought to smell formaldehyde and the swab will turn yellow or brown. I think the pale green beads are Japanese, but that's mostly WAG.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
