I found this bracelet in the green translucite. Can I call it Lucite bracelet from the 50s?
Also I have this necklace but not sure to id this one also.
Thanks

I would call the bracelet lucite.
The necklace is made of tumbled and polished semi-precious stones, possibly tigers eye or agate

I respectfully but strongly disagree with both answers. Lucite is a branded trade name and although people use it, it’s reportable as keyword spam unless you know it’s Lucite.
I don’t know what your bracelet is made of although it appears to be an acrylic (as is Lucite) but may be some other form of plastic. I think using acrylic is safe.
Your beads appear to me to be amber chips but I don’t know if they’re real or synthetic. Amber is not a stone, it’s a tree resin.

Im not sure on the bracelet, but I agree with the previous poster in the necklace looks to be real amber.
One method to test amber would be to purchase a cheap UV black-light flashlight on ebay (usually 5 bucks or so). Hold your piece under the black-light in a darkened room and see if it "fluoresces" turns bright green or yellow (watch your eyes, don't look into the UV light).
Also see videos of this on you-tube or google the info 🙂
Good Luck!
