A bit of history:

Bakelite was patented in 1907 by Dr. Leo Bakeland and was originally used as an electrical insulator for machinery. However, costume jewelry manufacturers quickly realized the main advantages of bakelite: its incredibly bright colors and the ability to acquire any shape. The material was just perfect for the popular Art Deco style in the late 20s and early 30s. What are the names of bakelite flowers like "caramel iris" and "apple juice" worth?»? Most of the bakelite products were carved by hand, thanks to this carving on the plastic, a unique play of light and three-dimensional volume was created. Bakelite jewelry was extremely diverse, including almost all possible fruits and vegetables, as well as exotic and tropical motifs, Egyptian style and, of course, everyone's favorite Art Deco jewelry.
After the great American depression, bright and perky jewelry made of bakelite was a breath of fresh air, a ray of hope, it is not surprising that even Chanel herself could not resist and released bakelite bracelets with large stones...
