$96 USDKAY DENNING Mid-Century Demi Enamel Bracelet & Earrings

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Designer/Signed:Sets & Parures
Lovely deep azure links framed in white with matching clip earrings make up this Kay Denning enamel on copper demi. If you look very (and I do mean VERY) closely you can see where there are a few tiny enamel flakes that have gone missing over the past 50 years, but outside of that the enameling is remarkably intact on both the bracelet and the earrings. Both the ear clips and the fold-over clasp mechanisms work well, and there is no real tarnish or verdigris - just a little dulling on the ...

Remember the old Crayola boxes with 64 or 128 or however many colors they had, and how you couldn't believe there were that many shades of just one color? That's what this Juliana demi reminds me of.

Restored Vintage BAKELITE & Blackstone Necklace

$325 USD Offers ConsideredRestored Vintage BAKELITE & Blackstone Necklace

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Plastic:Bakelite
I regret not taking a ''before'' picture of this necklace so you could have seen the filthy frayed cotton string, the blackened tin clam shell tips, the green verdigris on the brass jump rings, the broken spring ring clasp, the bent bead cap on the dangle and the dirt on the beads. Suffice it to say that the findings, string and clasp are vintage, but clean and newer than the original, the butterscotch beads and spacers are the original Bakelite, and the black beads are some kind of stone (not ...
