$60.00
Skip to product information
This restored vintage Bakelite bracelet is a 7/8" wide "domed" shaped bangle. It has been restored to its original beautiful translucent copper color.
Over the years the patina had oxidized into a dark brown color and the bracelet had accumulated a noticeable amount of surface wear. (See photo #10 for pre-restoration color and positive results of Simichrome polish test)
The bracelet has now been restored to its original translucent copper color, the surface wear has been removed, and the bangle looks like new!!
The bracelet weighs 37 grams and has a standard 2.5" interior diameter.
NOTE: As a necessary part of the refurbishment process, surface dirt, scuffs and scratches and the existing patina are removed.
Reaction of the Simichrome polish with the aged patina is what results in a positive yellow positive result when testing using that method.
Sunlight not only causes the color of the Bakelite to change over time, but sunlight also draws the chemical that reacts to the Simichrome polish in Bakelite to the surface.
So until the bracelet has been exposed to sunlight for some period of time, a restored bracelet will not test positive with Simichrome polish.
This bracelet did in fact test positive for Bakelite using the Simichrome polish test prior to restoration. (See photo #10) There are no chips or cracks in the bracelet.
