A striking and highly sought-after Art Deco Bakelite bangle in a rich Lipstick Red tone, beautifully accented with fine white veining that gives the surface depth and character. The form is particularly appealing, featuring a softly rounded oval profile with a subtle flat edge to the wrist, allowing for a comfortable and elegant fit. This colour is one of the most desirable in Bakelite jewellery, and examples in such a refined shape and presentation are becoming increasingly scarce. The natural ageing has produced a soft, lustrous patina that enhances its authenticity and vintage appeal. Versatile in styling, it can be worn as a bold standalone statement or layered with other Bakelite bangles and contrasting spacers to create a classic stacked look true to the period. Presented in excellent condition, with no cracks or chips. Dimensions: Inner diameter: approx. 6.4 cm Outer diameter: approx. 7.6 cm Width: approx. 0.6 cm Weight: approx. 13.6 grams U.S.A., circa 1920.
