These 12x18mm ivory lucite plastic grooved melon beads are original vintage circa 1960s - early 1980s.
Lucite 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.
