Vintage 5/8" Prystal Bakelite Bracelet! Dichromatic Pistachio to Clear Color!!

Description

Offered for sale is this AMAZING dichromatic Bakelite bracelet!! It has been restored to its original condition and color.
The color of this bracelet is really unique. Depending on the angle the bracelet is held to the light the color will change from a clear or "rain" color to a light pistachio color.
Over the years the patina of the bracelet had darkened to a cloudy yellow color and the bangle had picked up a good deal of surface wear.
The color of the bracelet has been restored to its original dichromatic colors and the surface wear removed.
This domed shaped "prystal" bracelet  is 5/8" wide with a 3/8" thick dome. It has a  2.5" interior diameter and weighs 41 grams!
The bracelet's authenticity as Bakelite was confirmed using Simichrome polish pre-restoration . (See photo #10) No chips, cracks or occlusions were noted.
NOTE: As part of the refurbishment process, surface dirt and the discoloration of the Bakelite that occurs as it oxidizes from exposure to sunlight is removed.
Sunlight not only causes the color of the Bakelite to change, but sunlight also draws the chemical that reacts to the Simichrome polish in Bakelite to the surface. When testing with Simichrome polish, this chemical (pheno-formaldehyde) is what causes the chemical reaction that changes the pink color of the Simichrome polish to a nicotine yellow which indicates a positive result for Bakelite.
So until the bracelet has been exposed to sunlight for some period of time, the bracelet will not test positive with Simichrome polish.
