An Art Deco Solid Olive Green Domed Bakelite Bangle
$ 88.20
- A striking Art Deco solid Bakelite bangle in a rich khaki green tone with subtle yellow-green undertones, highly sought after by collectors. The wide, domed oval form with a flat inner wrist sits beautifully on the arm, delivering the bold, sculptural presence that defines true 1920s Bakelite jewellery. This is a confident, chunky piece that works effortlessly worn alone as a statement, or layered with complementary colours or slim spacer bangles for a curated period look. The colour is particularly desirable — warm, earthy and complex — changing subtly with the light. Presented in excellent condition, with a lovely soft aged patina and only minimal wear consistent with age. No cracks, chips or repairs. Increasingly difficult to source in this quality, colour and scale, this is a standout example of early American Bakelite. Dimensions approx.: Inner oval 6.9cm x 5.9cm; width 2.3cm; thickness 0.6cm; total mass 32.1gm. U.S.A. Circa 1920.
