Vintage Cherry Red Faceted Bakelite Bangle Bracelet: This luscious piece of eye candy bakelite features a rich, translucent cherry red that simply glows with color when the light hits it!  The bracelet is faceted  in a diamond pattern, and is 1/2" wide with no chips or damage.  The interior diameter is 2 1/2".   This bakelite bangle has been hot water tested, but does not simichrome test, as many blacks and reds don't.  A fabulous bangle, and perfect addition to your black and red stack!
Item # BAKEFGLUMSHBR1 $62.00
Vintage Bakelite Figural Lumberjack Shaving Brooch: This adorable vintage figural brooch features a  lumberjack  shaving his beard while sitting on a bakelite log.  The figural is detailed and dimensional.  His hat is a coon skin cap, his jacket enameled in a red and black buffalo check.  He is shaving his beard with a straight razor! The log is over dyed bakelite.  The brooch measures just a hair under 2" long by 1 3/4" wide.  Please note you will often see these brooches listed as Charles F Worth, a French couture design house.  There is absolutely no proof anywhere these quirky brooches are associated with the house of Charles F. Worth, who dressed nobility, including the Empress Eugenie.  Unfortunately, they were put in a book as such, and this myth has been continued.   They remain maker unknown.

Item # BAKECABNK01 $249.00
Vintage Art Deco Faceted "Cherry Amber" Bakelite Bead Necklace: This gorgeous vintage art deco necklace is composed of 34" of faceted "cherry amber" bakelite beads, the largest center bead measures 1 by 3/4".  The necklace is hand knotted between each bead with a thumbless spring ring clasp.  The necklace has a dark, almost black patina, and glows deep cherry red in the light.  The term "cherry amber" was used in a book, and has been picked up due to rampant internet use.  Please note that there is nothing of true amber in this necklace, it is vintage bakelite.  It has been both hot water and simichrome tested, and of course passes both tests.   The necklace beads are in wonderful condition, the knotted silk has a few small frays and a tiny bit of stretching, but is secure.  The clasp works fine, but you do have to push it back closed, it does not spring.  At 34", this is long enough to easily put on over your head.  I have worn this several times and the clasp stays closed.   These necklaces are becoming harder to find, and would be a wonderful addition to any bakelite collector or bead lover!
