Hi again,
This has got to be the hardest bangle in the world to photograph so I've photographed in it a couple of different lights to best represent it. Apologies for the shine bouncing off it; I may have polished it a little too vigorously.
I've posted it because I thought it was similar to one antiquerose posted but I'm not so sure now I've looked at them together. Similar layering of greenish/teal and brown and cut into an unusual shape that's actually very comfortable to wear. It's very light and didn't respond to Simichrome as Bakelite. I bought it in a charity shop and nobody could tell me anything about it; except the price. I almost picked this beaut up just by fluttering my lashes at it; it was that cheap!
Any input would be very welcome, as ever.
Thanks for looking.

Yes, they're similar, aren't they? But yours is much prettier Rose. Is yours weighty? It looks it. Mine looks it but is actually very light.
Hi, could it be made from some kind of horn or something and dyed?
