    Description

    I have been asked to represent an impressive Bakelite collection for sale. This collection spans 30 years and includes many one-of-a-kind pieces as well as rare, flawless items that represent the bygone era of Bakelite Jewelry. All pieces are 100% authentic.  I will be adding several new pieces each week. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I will be describing colors as closely as I can using various published books on Bakelite Jewelry and Bangles.
    Here is a very rare find. Uncut bars of Bakelite in the shape of butterflies. I assume these are end scraps of a long extruded rod. Three of them are stamped with the number 843 on one end of the 6” longer bars. Numbered pieces are hard to find. These would have been sliced into 1/4” or less pieces and then made into blind pulls, curtain pulls or possibly into brooches. The 3 longer pieces are 6” and weigh 338 - 325 grams, the short red piece is 4” and weighs 215 grams and the shorter green piece is 5” and weighs 282 grams. The colors are all bright and have nice marbling. These are being sold as a set of 5 only.
