Circa 1930’s-40’s, this Bakelite bangle measures a tad over 1 inch wide with the inside diameter being the standard 2 ½ inches. The Art Deco inspired domed surface creates a depth of ¼ of an inch. As stated above, the color is an unusual translucent deep black cherry Bakelite. When held up to the light, the effect is fabulous. There is a definite pattern to the deep deco designed carvings. There are two areas of a series vertical carved lines, each area measuring just about 1 inch in width. Interspersed between these vertical carved areas are abstract free flowing carved lines, creating quite a dramatic effect and enabling the vertical carved areas to show off even more. BE SURE TO SEE ALL PHOTOS.

This wonderful example of authentic Vintage Bakelite jewelry will stand alone in its elegance or blend well with other contrasting colors of Bakelite.

The patina is bright and shiny on this Bakelite bangle, testing positive for Bakelite. It is in mint condition, free of any damage whatsoever and is ready to be worn and enjoyed with other vintage jewelry.
