[QUOTE="Vic23, post: 3198824, member: 17769"]Hi everyone! I just recently got into collecting vintage jewelry made of early plastic. I especially love bangles, and some necklaces. I am very happy to have found this group, there are so many things I have learnt already in the past couple days. Due to the pandemic I can only order from online now, and it is more difficult to evaluate the date and material for a bangle based on a photo for anyone, but especially for a beginner like me. After a few day search I found these 3 bangles interesting, and I think the first two might be bakelite and maybe the third a lucite one? I know its nearly impossible to tell without testing, but maybe someone who already is very knowledgeable about vintage plastic jewelry can still make a more accurate bet. I think they are all pretty, but don't want to buy something which is contemporary or absolutely has no collection value. Thanks if you can give me an opinion! Vicky[/QUOTE]
