Beads are comprised of polished teardrop, round, and oval beads in various sizes. Very Good Vintage Condition. Some fine surface scratches and patina on the metal components. Beads are comprised of polished teardrop, round, and oval beads in various sizes. The butterscotch swirl and amber colored beads tested as Bakelite using Simichrome. When testing a black bead with Simichrome polish, the Q-tip turned black. Knowing that Simichrome tests on black Bakelite can be inconsistent, as a back up, we performed a hot water test, and they gave off that distinctive Bakelite chemical odor. Beads are also heavy for their volume and gave that distinctive "clunk" sound when handled. This necklace was part of a large Bakelite jewelry collection acquired from the contents of an antique shop liquidation. Necklace is carefully packaged and shipped in a jewelry gift box. Condition: Pre-owned - Good. Category: Jewelry & Watches › Vintage & Antique Jewelry › Necklaces & Pendants. Brand: Unbranded.
