Strawberry Bakelite Dangle Necklace Three Rows of Carved Dangles on Brass Chain and Black Cord Simichrome Tested Unusual Bakelite Necklace

Strawberry Bakelite dangle necklace

* The small glossy red carved dangles on this necklace remind me of clouds, so I call this my cloud necklace. I've never seen a piece like this so I'm assuming it was made by a small shop, or came as a kit or something along those lines. Three rows of red carved dangles hang from a brass chain, attached to each other and the chain by brass O rings. The chain is attached to two black doubled cotton cords at each end. Each cord has three knots tied in the same place as the opposite cord. Each cord ends in a black cap with a red dangle attached. You can make the necklace any length you want by inserting the dangle ends through the opposing cord above or below one of the knots. The first picture show the necklace at its longest length. The dangles are translucent, but pretty thick and they make a wonderful noise when you're walking along. A great collectible necklace that's sure to make a statement at any length!

* Overall, the cord and chain ae 24" long and the three rows of dangles adds another 3 1/2". Each dangle is 7/8" long and 1/4" thick and just over 3/8" wide at the top of the "cloud".

* This extraordinary Bakelite necklace is in excellent vintage condition. There are no chips, cracks or visible scratches to the Bakelite, the brass chain is shiny and there is no fraying to the cord. This piece has been in storage since the 1960's.
