Looking for any information at these pieces. the larger piece with the chain is part of the "necklace" but my aunt put a chain through it for a bracelet. She picked these pieces up in some little store way back when. At any rate, we are looking for any info. the green stones have the look of a plastic, bakelite perhaps but it seems softer to the touch. Metal of some type can't ID, tho pics look like plastic ... Art Deco sort of styling ... Any info on age perhaps worth ?
TIA! for any info
very pretty and does look art deco. THe green could be chalcedonty glass, or possibly molded celluloid. Metal could be brass but most likely was a mix. Probably had a gold wash at one time. Probably meant to mimic the carved jade pieces coming out of China at hte time.
I doubt imperial jade would be set in brass, but if you arent sure its always best to have it tested
Put the piece(s) in question up to your face (chin or cheek) Jade is freezer cold, glass is cool but quickly warms and plastic holds no coolness.Wrote a guide about it, but not many have seen it. Oh by the way................Hi! 
Hey oldasdirt2012: Thanks for that information! The stone is initially verrry cold, but does warm up so I guess glass? But the back doesn't look shiny like glass would it's dull with striations and small pits (viewed through a jewelers loop) What's the link to your guide? 
I'd like to read it!
Hi, I wrote a couple of them. Why ebay makes it so hard for people to find is confussing to me. You have to click on the feedback number of the person who has the guide and assume they wrote something unless they didnt. LOL I feel another guide coming on. "How to find guides written by ebay dealers". No my next guide will be on metals,gold & silver. I am not an expert, just know enough to get into trouble.
