Bold Chunky 1920’s 1930’s Art Deco Bakelite Emerald Green Circle Link Necklace
Fabulous art deco chunky oversized circle link chain statement necklace. Elegant antique French Ooh la la look – bound to quickly become the shining star of any outfit and should draw many compliments. Features big bold circular links. Long front run of focal links are doubled. Intriguing from every angle. Rich jewel toned shade of ever so slightly transparent (when held to the light) forest to emerald green (more emerald when illuminate by the light and more deep forest green without). Ready and waiting for your neckline, special outfit, jewelry wardrobe, collection, or gift giving – you will love this! AGE OR ERA : Original true authentic vintage piece – art deco era – estimating late 1920’s to early 1930’s. MARKINGS : None that I could find. METAL / MATERIAL : Tested and confirmed bakelite links. ANECDOTAL, METAPHYSICAL, &/or LORE : x. CLASP / CLOSURE : Spring ring clasp – clasp and jump rings appear to be made from copper or a copper toned metal with a brass or gold plated wash or finish. MEASUREMENTS : Unstretched and in a relaxed position the necklace measures about 15.5″ long – if you apply some tension to stretch it out it reaches 17″ or a bit over. Links are just under an inch 15/16 or. 98 in diameter or exactly 25 mm across. Leads me to believe it may be European or more specifically, French in origin. TESTING : Positive for bakelite using both the Simichrome and rub and smell methods. INVENTORY NUMBER OR NOTE : x. CONDITION = Great antique / vintage pre-loved condition. No damage or quirks found to mention. This is a fine example anyone would be proud to own – from a novice just starting to explore or a seasoned collector.
