    It isn't metal, it's some weird bendy layered stuff. Very light.

    Thoughts?

    Bone or horn heated to make it flexible then folded?
    Just guessing here as I really have no idea. Hmmm……….

    Other bracelets of this general design I have seen have been Celluloid or similar.

    If not Celluloid, I'll go with horn.

    Same here. Painted horn doesn't sound strange. I've seen similar made of horn before.

    It isn't stinky. Given the lamination layers, I'm inclined to horn, I think.

    I buy weird stuff.

    Reminds me of a Dominican tortoise shell piece I have.
