I buy a lot of stuff from them on the Bay. The vintage cellulose acetate is real quality material and polishes up like a dream. Heat is a serious enemy with that material and I’ve ruined a couple of full blanks when the top end just turned to jelly haha. However l used the bottom half to make smaller pieces like key rings and Christmas baubles etc. .No piece is ever a dead loss. I use small offcuts to make pulls for the blinds all around the house. All different and quite funky looking with the different styles,materials and colours.
