Lucite Bead Ivory Heishe 4x3mm

These small vintage ivory heishe beads are popular in delicate beaded necklaces and freindship bracelets. They are made from lucite which is a material that has both properties of plastic and glass and mirrors
the clarity of glass. Lucite is heavier in “feel” compared to
traditional plastics and is of the highest quality. Lucite was
discovered in 1931 by Du Pont chemists. It was among the first plastics
derived from petrochemicals and was sold to jewellery manufacturers
after the war. Beads were mass produced in the 1960’s – early 1980s
using this material. Our chunky Lucite beads are a best seller.
