Composition: Bakelite, Lucite Condition: very good Dimensions (diameter): 6.5 cm x 4.5 cm Color: red, yellow Marking: none Country: USA Period: 1930-1950 Jewelry style: Art Deco Market value: 89-150 EUR
Two-tone layering: yellowish caramel outer layers of Bakelite and a transparent red middle layer of Lucite. The yellowish layers have the classic marbled/cloudy effect, very typical of Bakelite. The red layer features a pattern with sun-shaped rays in squares. This pattern was done manually, which gives a 3D effect through the transparent Lucite. A small metal decorative rivet element is visible at the bottom - used as reinforcement or decoration in some original bracelets. This bracelet has an interesting internal pattern that adds to its aesthetic value. Thick “bangle” shape - typical of the 1930-1940 Art Deco-Machine Age transitional design.
