An intricately molded late Art Deco vintage coral celluloid floral ring from the late 1930s. This huge ring consists of the 1-7/8" x 11/16" floral celluloid top, which is riveted to a vintage size 5 gold-plated brass signet-style ring. We do not think this is a later addition, it appears to have been made and sold this way originally. It is has small cream-white highlights in imitation of real coral, and it is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, dents, bends, corrosion, losses, damage or repairs other than some wear to the gold plated shank's plating. All items are thoroughly and conservatively graded and all condition issues are noted; all items are vintage or antique and may have slight signs of gentle use. Small packet surface shipping to the U.S. starts at $6.90 (other spots may vary) - insurance to $100 is included. Items paid with a credit card will be shipped to confirmed addresses only. We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US. PLEASE NOTE: we DO NOT accept PayPal.

A truly exceptional piece - this is a vintage mid 1930s coral coloured Catalin celluloid bangle bracelet. The end of the bracelet is not closed, it pierces the other end, without being attached. This bracelet measures 2-1/2" across the interior (the inserted end does slide just a very slight bit slightly through the opening - pushing it additionally is not recommended for this material, however - old plastics such as Bakelite, celluloid, Catalin and even Galalith are more brittle than modern plastics). It is 1-1/4" at its widest. It is a wonderful coral colour, a colour that became popular in the mid-1930s. This item is in excellent vintage condition with no chips, cracks, stains, losses, damage or repairs, but someone went mad and tested it with a hot pin, so there is a tiny pin hole inside the bangle. All items are thoroughly and conservatively graded and all condition issues are noted; all items are vintage or antique and may have slight signs of gentle use. Surface tracked shipping starts at $21 (to the US, other spots may vary) - tracking and insurance are included in shipping quotes. Our prices are in $US. PLEASE NOTE: we DO NOT accept PayPal.
About hot pin testing - not a good test for vintage Bakelite, Catalin or celluloid, whatever you have read elsewhere, as it not only damages the piece, but also releases unhealthy chemical fumes. There are safer/less damaging tests. We used the hot water test with this, which produced a slightly unpleasant chemical smell.
