<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RachelW, post: 9620106, member: 15376&quot;]<p style="text-align: center">I picked up this necklace at the thrift today for 2e. I found three identical ones, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/1252338175/vintage-large-bakelite-necklace-massive" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/1252338175/vintage-large-bakelite-necklace-massive" rel="nofollow">two</a> (from the same seller) <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/1597553277/vintage-large-black-beads-massive" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/1597553277/vintage-large-black-beads-massive" rel="nofollow">said</a> 60s bakelite, another attributed it to Gerda Lynggaard Monies. I did the soda test and didn&#039;t seem to make much happen..</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center">The shine is gone on the two upper beads, though it got better after a go with the sunshine cloth. The odd brown marks are after a clean with a damp cloth, is this damage or do I need to take a toothbrush to it?</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center">Etsy prices are usually silly but they&#039;re tempting, so is this Bakelite, or another type of plastic? What sort of age are we looking at here?</p> <p style="text-align: center"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]469857[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]469858[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]469859[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]469860[/ATTACH] </p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
