Does anyone know if someone is reproducing thermoset plastic sets? I picked up a bracelet and the back look cheap of different than any other one I have ever seen.

Thermoset is a blanket term for vintage plastic costume jewelry.

I really love the cheap plastic stuff. I have a weakness for the bold designs and colors.

sorry, I forget sometimes. I figured if anyone knew they are being reproduced they would automatically know what they are. [huh]
I asked this on the powder room and they moved it for some reason.

I seem to be batting 1000 around here lately. [huh] lol
You would love thermosets jewelry. They can be very pretty.
The study of early plastics is very interesting. They made tons of different kinds.

Good Lord. When I glanced at this thread I thought someone might be collecting reproductions of vintage thermostats. Vintage clothing, cars, hats, guns, cameras, guitars and knives are things that I can understand collecting. I can maybe even appreciate collecting vintage shaving equipment.
But not vintage thermostats. That would just be over the top.

From my experience there probably is someone out there collecting old thermostats. If not then they may start from this thread. lol

Bronze is used for marine valve
