    Thrift store find from today. Its some kind of light plastic. The surface is black. Looks hand-carved to me... (but can be machine-made as well).
    Native-American-style?
    I would like to know, if its possible to determine, if this is a vintage piece, or not. Have you seen such bracelets?

    P.S.
    I found some pieces of carved celluloid online - I wonder if this might be something similar (mine looks not so old though):

      Thank you valentino! I dont think its horn.
      I did test (as described below) - the material does produce static.
