<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lizzie, post: 7450943, member: 2027&quot;]Hello experts! Hope everyone&#039;s day is going well.&nbsp; I am stumped on the material used for these bead necklaces and would appreciate your knowledge, opinions and direction.</p><p><br /></p><p>The first is extremely lightweight so not bakelite.&nbsp; Could it be celluloid? The clasp is odd (to me anyway) as it is a box type clasp but the tongue goes into the opposing bead. Is that indication of its age?</p><p><br /></p><p>The second one is heavy for its size (14&quot;), has a barrel clasp and feels like glass. Beads are irregular.&nbsp; Could it it be made from conch shell?</p><p><br /></p><p>As always, your help is much appreciated.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]422759[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]422761[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
