I'm not sure I'd publish photos of my bits from the 80s, if I had any. (sorry, couldn't resist!)
It's a vintage bracelet. I wouldn't worry about it. I've run across Star-Art before; it's one of the American names from the 40s until I'm told...
The company appears to be back in business, making high quality costume. https://cinerny.com/
I'd guess 60s.

They're both costume; you'd have to pay me to take the second one. The pendant looks like it's a piece of something else. I'd take it in a lot...
I resemble that remark. As I've said a million times: I've never been normal a day in my life and am too [blinkin'] old to start now!

I'm seeing bits of sunstone and smoky quartz in there too. The other are right - nothing on that necklace would be out of place in a decent bead...
The "wood" in this case may be black "wood coral" from Hawaii.
Greetings!
It also means this isn't a new item; it's been around a while.
Wild guess, circa 1950?
Someone was NOT paying attention. Five quid? Wish I could find some at any price; it doesn't turn up in the States except at silly money prices.
