*DESCRIPTION: This is a wonderful trio of genuine Bakelite jewelry.
The trio consists of a graduated beaded necklace, diamond-faceted (carved) bracelet,
& an "ART" signed hefty pin with paisley-shaped Bakelite pieces.
I call the Bakelite color camo/scrub green.
The color is indescribable & changes depending on the light, a wonderful Bakelite property.

The necklace's beads graduate in size.
The green color is solid with no translucency, no marbling.
New gold-tone roundels are between each bead.
The chunky, high-polished, gold-tone clasp is a new favorite.

The bracelet has very mild translucent.
It is all carved with diamond facets.
Please note that the bracelet has a small chip on one side.
(I've provided a photo.)

The "ART" signed pin/brooch features five Bakelite pieces with End-of-the-Day marbling.
In the center is that pretty, faceted, orchid-color crystal, ~18 mm in size.
The crystal is bezel set & open backed.
The pretty crystal is surrounded by detailed Japanned (black enameled) designs.

Beautiful pieces.

Enjoy!

(All my Bakelite jewelry is authenticated using Simichrome Polish.)
