The ones I've seen from the 80s were all plastic, some with a painted finish.
On a different note: check out the first piece on this page. Now that's a nice coral cameo. http://www.faycullen.com/blog/coral/
I'm fairly sure the top necklace is ceramic; I've seen those beads before or something similar. I could be wrong of course. The bar bells are...
It could be a good hobbyist, but it could be Bovano too or someone similar. http://www.bovano.com/ The lines are stress cracks - someone tried...
These days? In my area not much, unless someone reupholstered it in something funky. I like the carving.
It could be Kashmiri too, without too much trouble. If it was paper mache I'd call Kashmir (India/Pakistan border province) but in wood, probably...

I'll take this please. (LOL)
Holy ....:woot::wideyed::wideyed::wideyed::wideyed::wideyed::wideyed::greedy::greedy::greedy: Somebody was asleep at the switch! Gotta love when...
That would be my guess too.
This is a necklace I just made out of a watch chain slide. The slide was found orphaned. It's gold-filled with a piece of Victorian yellow...

Probably the latter, if they look really new in person.
It's too nice to melt; it's not the poor model's fault that its previous owner was a turd emoji.
No idea, but that's nice!
It's not something I'd hang on my own wall, but it's interesting. It looks like a painting of Depression.
Not sure myself. It wasn't sold as amber, but a few people obviously thought otherwise. Still not sure about the OP's beads. Some composites can...
