<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eils14, post: 2288966, member: 14776&quot;]Hi Bronwen,</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for the reply. Well it appears close to room temperature and I think about the right weight for its size (measures about 3.5cms from behind.) When tapping with a finger it sounds duller than when I tap a glass but perhaps more solid than plastic. </p><p><br /></p><p>I was thinking man made purely because of the lines in the back of the piece, but I have no idea. </p><p><br /></p><p>I haven&#039;t been able to find anything like it online yet and it has been puzzling me for some time. I&#039;m glad to know though that it has some age and is older than bakelite. I had wondered at one point if it could be another early plastic (I don&#039;t know too much about the different early types for identification) but from what you say it seems unlikely too and it may just be a mystery material! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/confused.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
