Hi All.I found this a very interesting thread and wondered if anyone could shed some light on this bead/pendant.Purchased about 20 years ago in Portobello Road London as a plastic bead from a gipsies costume (for one english pound)but it holds static electricity to pick up paper and chips like amber as visible in one image.It is also hand cut but i know many plastics can be worked like this.Could it be Burmese Cherry Amber?
