If you love vintage fashion there is a good chance you love vintage jewelry and if you love vintage jewelry how can you not love Bakelite?I thought in an attempt to start blogging more I'd make a theme post of showing off various Bakelite pieces for sale on the wonderful world wide web that catch my eye,because I admit it,I window shop.A lot.
One of my favorite colors of Bakelite is apple juice.It also usually tends to me the most expensive,which is why I don't have any pieces with the exception of a large decorative button I keep in my sewing box thinking one day I'll put it to good use.These beauties I've all found for under $100.00!
This brooch from mikat82
features a wire fox terrier in it.Wire Fox Terriers became popular family dogs inthe 1930's because of The Thin Man feature films.
This prairie wagon brooch from atomicwarehouse
incorporates wood and Bakelite together.
Love this funky little fish brooch from craftingfool2003
This brooch with the mother of pearl fleck in t is beautiful from
Violasvintages
Hopefully you're not bored of brooches so lets finish this off with some dress clips!Dress clips I feel are one of the most underrated but most valuable pieces to have to your vintage wardrobe.We all have that dress we like that's plain but add a dress clip to it and you can really give it a glamorous feel!
This dress clip also from Violasvintages
has combined my love of Bakelite AND rhinestones!
Lastly this reverse carving apple juice Bakelite dress clip from
OurBoudoir
Hope you all enjoyed drooling over these pretties as much as I have!Till next time.
