I purchased a lot in an estate sale and this link bracelet was in it. I have no idea what it is and any thoughts would be appreciated.

Looks like it was made to look like jade. But fake. They would have put it in silver or gold.

It looks like it's made of brass with a type of green slag glass. My guess it was made no later than the 1930s. From where it came from I'm not sure. Maybe China or even the Middle East. As a vintage piece it might be worth as much as $50.00 in a shop that offers estate jewelry.

I believe the green “stones” are something called Bakelite. I am so at a loss.

Baselite is like hard plastic, so maybe it isn't glass. Hard to tell from only a picture.

Bakelite was one of the first commercial plastics. It was invented in the early 20th century and was gradually mostly supplanted by other plastics as the century advanced. That might help approximately date the bracelet.
