Vintage French Art Deco Light Butterscotch Bakelite Long Statement Necklace – 1930s Tested 99g
A substantial and beautifully preserved example of French Art Deco Bakelite, this 1930s necklace offers an exceptional 99.22 grams of polished light‑butterscotch beads — a weight and presence rarely encountered today. The beads display the warm translucence, density, and hand‑finished surface that distinguish early French production from later or American work.
The necklace retains its original brass screw‑barrel clasp and is expertly strung on cord, consistent with pre‑war construction. Its generous 29" length allows it to slip easily over the head while maintaining the elegant drape characteristic of the period.
Verified with hot water, and baking‑soda testing, this is a true period piece, not a modern reproduction.
For collectors seeking authenticity, weight, and era‑correct craftsmanship, this necklace stands out as a rare and highly desirable Art Deco example.
Excellent vintage condition. No cracks, chips, or structural issues. Clasp functions properly.
