Other Plastic Bracelets

These bangles are from the second half of the 20th century, and most are made of Lucite, hard plastic, or resin. To learn more about vintage non-Bakelite plastic bangles, I recommend "Plastic Bangles" by Lyn Tortoriello and Deborah Lyons ( 2005, Schiffer Books).

I am not entirely sure what this is. It's not Bakelite, could be Lucite, it was sold to me as Celluloid-- but, it is some sort of injected dot/bowtie, and a very wonderful piece.
