LEA STEIN BROOCH - FOX HEAD - MOP NAVY RED

This is the Lea Stein fox head brooch.  I actually like it more than her full length fox.  I have a very old one that is unmarked in my collection  It is one of her earlier designs - but I do not know when this one was made.  She often redoes a design.  Full details are on my web site.  It is an original Lea Stein - I do not sell fakes/copies/reproductions - watch out for them!  Ref: 3035 C58/13 Price £65

PROGRAMME GLASSES WITH HANDLE - VINTAGE - GREEN & BLACK

This pair of vintage programme glasses was used for reading programmes or menus in the 1950s.  Much more stylish than ordinary reading glasses!  They are in a mottle green plastic with black dots.  I often get the ones that fold up small but these are much rarer and I was glad to get them.  I do with people would dress up more and use all these wonderful vintage accessories!  Price £75 ref: 3034 B88/4

LEA STEIN BROOCH - THE TURTLE - GOLDEN BROWN AND GREY

This Lea Stein Turtle brooch has a black body with rectangles of a shiny golden brown colour on a grey mother of pearl.  Have been asked several times for a turtle but this is the first one I have seen recently that I liked.  I am very funny about my Lea Stein colours!  This one is great because - although it has a black body - it will still show up on a black garment.  Just one of the Lea Stein brooches I have in my shop at Vintage Modes in Grays Antiques in central London - just a few minutes from Bond Street underground station - what could be easier!  Ref: 3033 C58/12 price £65

GREEN BAKELITE DOMED SHAPED CLIP EARRINGS

These pair of green bakelite clip earrings are quite unusual.  The slightly orange looking swirls are in fact see through  - the green swirls are on a clear base - which produces unusual effects.  See full description on the web site. Price £55 ref: 3031 C54/55

CELLULOID NEEDLE CASE, THIMBLE & BOBBIN HOLDER - RED & CREAM MAN

Love this - it is an Art Deco period, celluloid needle case/bobbin holder/thimble in the shape of a red man.  Everything you need to make an emergency sewing repair - sew on a button etc. - in a wonderful humorous case.  The thimble comes off the top. The middle unscrews to reveal a bobbin for cottons.  This unscrews to hold a couple of needles.  He has lost a little paint but is otherwise in good condition.  Price £68 ref: 3030 C58/4

LEA STEIN BROOCH - THE SITTING CAT - EMERALD GREEN

Love the colour of this Lea Stein brooch - a patterned emerald green.  It is the sitting cat.  The ears and eyes are ivorine.  Stunning!  So much better than the cheap looking copies/reproductions/fakes that are to be found.  This one is genuine and has the correct pin on the reverse.  Full details on my web site.  Price £65 ref: 3029  C58/17

LEA STEIN BROOCH - JOSEPHINE BAKER

This is one of Lea Stein's newer designs - the Josephine Baker brooch.  This one has the brow face.  There is a version with a lighter face that is called 'Lido'.  I think it has been complicated to design and make.  The face has wonderful detail (and was difficult to photograph without getting shading on the face!).  The earrings are stunning.  Unfortunately it has to be that bit more expensive - because it cost me more!  Full details on the web site.  Price £95 ref: 3028 C59/3
