So this was another find for today on the flea market: an art deco ivory stretch bracelet.
It was priced 0,5€ but The lady gave it to me for 0,3€! Omg this is so unreal...the crazy thing about it: the lady actually also had an ivory necklace which she knew was ivory, and she priced it well.
This bracelet looks really yellow, but color cant fool me. You can see the schreger lines really clearly.
On top of that, I know the model and I have two matching ivory and ebony bracelets which you can see on the pic.
So, anyone an idea how I could try to get this bracelet a bit more white instead of this mellow yellow color?
:-)
Thanks!

Hello Celiene, thanks for your help! Did you ever try to bleach ivory yourself?
No I never did.
What a steal!!! Beautiful.
I looked twice for your scarab necklace but didn't find it - can you put the link up under my ring, please?
Rare design, love it.
Valentino, its nice to know it can be bleached, but I agree, is it wort the effort...just like humans some elephants have more yellow teeth than others ( all you americans seem to have perfect white smiles! Not here in europe...) ;-) so I guess I will leave it be.
Thanks everyone for the love!
