Precious plastics?

The jewellery on display here, from the collections of MoDiP, the Plastics Historical Society and the Worshipful Company of Horners spans five centuries, from the intricately hand carved horn comb dated 1694 to the 21st century acrylic creations and 3D printed pieces.

So, do you think of plastics as a throw-away, transient commodity or as a material of beauty and value?
