Vintage JAKOB BENGEL ART DECO 1930s MACHINE AGE Chrome & Galilith Necklace
ART DECO JAKOB BENGEL&####128153;&####128153. Sourced last Summer in London at ACCESSORIES OF OLD vintage jewelry warehouse. If you have ever shopped there with Jon the owner – you may or may not know that he also has/had one of the best JAKOB BENGEL (“Machine Age”) collections in the U. I was lucky to snag several and have decided not to keep them all. This 17 Chrome & Galilith necklace is a wonderful example of Bengel’s work. A very iconic 1930s Art Deco necklace with architectural shapes incorporated in the 1.5 long Galilith panel pendants on a Chrome filigree chain. In EXCELLENT vintage condition with only minor wear commensurate with age. Bengel pieces weren’t signed, the design is his signature. Sometimes they may have. Mark on the spring ring which reads’Guaranteed or Gesch’ but that is the exception rather than the rule.
