Bangles from the 1920s are desirable as they are now genuine antiques. It was very fashionable back in the roaring twenties to wear a group of bangle bracelet on your arm and the demand for this look was met by jewellery makers everywhere. You can buy them in precious metals like gold and silver, in Ivory and also in the range of early plastics that were in use at the time. This vintage bangle is made from Celluloid and it would have been intended to have a Jade like appearance being marbled green with cream. The bracelet measures 3.25 inches from outer edge to outer edge and 2.75inches across the open middle making the tube wall a tad over quarter of an inch. This Art Deco beauty is most likely French as it has inset glass diamond jewels all around and also has tiny metal pins for added sparkle. Some of the stones have turned champagne in colour over the years and a few of the tiny metal pins are missing but this is still a sparkly beauty. The shape is slightly oval. This 1920s bracelet is in very good condition. A perfect addition to a collection of vintage costume jewellery from the Art Deco era or lovely for your collection of Bakelite era plastic jewellery.
