<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eils14, post: 2288386, member: 14776&quot;]Hi everyone,</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I picked up this old brooch a few months ago and I just can&#039;t decide what it is made from, so I am looking for any thoughts you may have on it! </p><p><br /></p><p>Is this bakelite, or is it too old for that? I have tried the hot water test on it and perhaps a faint smell but definitely not as strong as on other definite bakelite pieces I have had (I can&#039;t decide if I am imagining it or smelling the metal pieces!) It has slight circular lines all over the back so I am thinking probably man made material?? </p><p><br /></p><p>Any thoughts welcome! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]257961[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]257962[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]257963[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]257965[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]257966[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]257968[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
