I have some Cebloplast (cellulose acetate, not acrylic) which looks very similar, as well as some acrylic acetate which is a copycat design that lacks the subtle shading of "the real thing". I think it's usually called "cracked ice".
Here's a pic of the 2 types I have - just one square rod of the darker, a couple of square rods in addition to this one that I have rounded of the brighter one.

Glad Jon was able to point you in the right direction. Erinoid is the name used in Britain for Galalith (a.k.a. casein)
I thought Erinoid was a brand name. I'm fairly sure what I have is not casein. I've used this before several times and is unlike any casein i have.

You're right - Erinoid Ltd is a plastics manufacturer, per their facebook page they make several types of plastic including acrylic. The name originally meant galalith (which they also make) but now it might be used to mean any material made by that company.
