This always makes me crazy, looking at this (broken) necklace. From the books I've read I've always thought of it as carved overdyed celluloid. Then from some discussions the consensus seems to be Galaith/French Bakelite. Now I look up similar listings and the overwhelming majority list it as Galalith, which is a casein type plastic. Gahhhhhhhhh! Any opinions?

Thanks for your replies-- to clarify, I meant only the multicolored ones...if you look up similar ones people list them variously as galaith, galalith, or overdyed celluloid. The other beads are wood and there are a few white glass ones as well, but I was wondering which was the correct classification for the carved mulitcolor ones.
