Vintage Yellow Amber Bakelite Catalin Raw Block — 695 grams

A beautifully preserved piece of vintage Bakelite Catalin in its raw, uncut form. This block glows with the warm golden-amber tone that serious collectors immediately recognize — a color born not from dye alone, but from decades of natural oxidation transforming the original pale cast into deep, luminous honey.

• Weight: 695 grams
• Dimensions: 18.8 × 7 × 4.3 cm
• Color: Yellow Amber / Honey Gold
• Material: Genuine Catalin Bakelite — cast phenol-formaldehyde resin, no fillers
• Condition: Raw uncut vintage block — natural surface patina

What sets this block apart is its substantial size and weight for its compact form — dense, solid, and satisfying in the hand in the way only genuine old Catalin can be. The raw surface retains its original character, with the kind of natural aging that confirms authenticity far better than any polish ever could. Cut, drill, or turn it on a lathe — the interior color will be consistent and deep throughout.

Perfect for:

• Prayer beads — tesbih, misbaha, tasbih, subhah
• Jewelry — bangles, rings, pendants, carved pieces
• Beads, buttons, and custom turned parts
• Display and collectors seeking genuine raw Catalin stock

This is not a reproduction, not new-cast resin, and not cherry amber. It is the real thing.
