<p>[QUOTE="Fifi, post: 652187, member: 10992"]Hi everyone, just wanted to ask if anyone has any idea what this is made of? I did the usual hot water test for Bakelite and only a very faint smell emerged, as well as tested with bicarb of soda and it turned a very faint yellow but I’m guessing that could be just due to the colour? They are heavier than other plastics and some of the spheres are slightly uneven so I think hand carved. Thanks so much in advance.
