1930s BAKELITE FRUITS & WOOD BASE BROOCH

Lucky to get this brooch with 6 bakelite fruits on a dark wood base.  It is in reasonable condition considering its age and the fact that often the plastic peels off the chord and a lot of white cord shows through.  I have also seen this brooch on the internet with one of the fruits missing.  I have also tried to keep the price down - as I have seen these going for a lot of money.  Strange there isn't an apple - but I do love the fruits!  Full details are on my web site as usual - including a condition report.  Price £128 reference 3017 C51/36

BAKELITE BROOCH - CARVED, DARK GREEN LEAVES & BROWN BEADS HANGING

This is a dangley ?grapes bakelite brooch. It has two carved green leaves and lots of brownish bakelite beads hanging from a chain.  There is a metal back place and the leaves are wired onto it.  I am assured by someone whose judgement I trust that this is unsigned Hess for Miriam Haskell. However as it is not marked, and I have not seen it documented anywhere - I am not selling it as Haskell.  It certainly looks as if it could be!  Anyway I love it and would be more than happy to wear it!  Price £88 ref: 2969 C47/36
