[QUOTE="Eils14, post: 9575339, member: 14776"]Hi everyone, I picked up a job lot of items and in it were these 4 bracelets. I am wondering what everyone thinks they might be made of and their age? None of them have the bakelite smell so I have ruled that out. I just want to make sure I am not missing anything with them. Bracelet 1 - the elephant one - presuming just regular plastic? Has a mark where it joins up, see photo. Bracelet 2 - white peacock one - presuming regular plastic but just checking? Bracelet 3 - tortoiseshell like one - not too sure, could this be celluloid or some other material? Lots of lines on the inside of it, see photo. Bracelet 4 - cream flower/ chrysanthemum = I have seen other ones which have this motif and are celluloid, does this seem likely? TYIA for any help or advice you can give on these ones.
