Jewelry: Costume: Bakelite and Plastics


What's New in the Collector's Showcase of Jewelry: Costume: Bakelite and Plastics?
The Most Recent Additions to This Category are First!
Bold and extremely chunky clear Lucite necklace and earrings. The large bead measures 1 1/2" long and 1 1/2" across and is deeply molded. There is a nice mix of beads, reducing the chance of boredom with this wonderful necklace! Measures 31" long and has grey metal findings. It is in excellent condition!!


The matching earrings have some crackling on the surface, and it looks as if sometime attempted to buff the bead back to its original state (easily done with a nail buffer and a bit of patience). If so, they were fairly successful, and I would expect that both beads could be restored. A fabulous set, whether you wear the necklace alone or with the earrings. Price is for the necklace only; the earrings will come along for free.

 2 Lea Stein Bracelets:  red & white and brown & cream.  Sticker on brown says Made in Paris - clue that it is Stein, along with fine layers of plastic.  Each is oval of 2 inches by 1 1/2 - small.  Condition is like new.  Price is $79 for both!  Opalescent lucite ring with rhinestones.Size 7.  Very summery 1 1/2" round plastic clip iridescent sea green flake earrings.

Vintage Iridescent Sea Green Flake Earri $22.00

Shades of the 1020's!  I can just see this pendant on a lady - not a flapper but maybe a schoolteacher.  2 3/4 x 1 3/4 with new 24 inch cord.  Gold with cutouts and painted red and blue flowers, green leaves.  Some of black highlights have worn, especially at top.

Otherwise, very good condition - not warped as some celluloid may do.  Last image is the back.  Don't know the name of this beauty - is it a Japanese instrument?  It's 3 1/2 inches long and 2 inches wide.  The wooden part appears to be walnut.  The strings have a little wear showing but otherwise it is in very good condition.  C clasp.  Fifty-four inches of shimmery facetted plastic beads give this 1960’s necklace lots of wrapping and draping options.  (Try it as a long, flapper necklace, a three-layered jewel-collar style, or even a wide, wrapped bracelet!) The two colors of bright pink beads are permanently strung on cord spaced to look remarkably like four hand-knotted strands.  The spring-ring clasp secures the two filigree gold-plated gathers that finish the ends. Light and luscious, this flower-girl style is in great condition.  Sharp looking 15" long white, black and silver plastic necklace.

This set of three awesome lucite pins are not just colorful but uniquely designed. They each measure 3 1/8th inches tall by 1/2 inch wide. They are in MINT condition with drilled holes that have 6 black loops in them. There is a metal safety clasp on the back and no markings. On my monitor, the colors appear slightly off from the real colors. There is a persimmon orange one, a teal blue and a pinkish lavendar one.  These fun earrings are light and easy to wear. They are post style for pierced ears and measure 2 3/4 inches long and 1 inch wide. They are in great condition, with no markings.  Shimmery carved Lucite (acrylic plastic) makes this vintage leaf pin a fabulously light-reflecting accessory. The 2 ¾" long leaf bows upward in the center.  The deeply cut fronds and center stem are highly polished.  With a safety clasp pin back, this luminescent leaf is in superb condition and will add drama and light to an ensemble.  Attractive melon color plastic and goldtone metal 18" long necklace
