Vintage Celluloid Flower Necklace


Click on a thumbnail image to see enlarged images.




A delightfully whimsical necklace of celluloid flowers hanging from an ivory colored celluloid chain. The petals of the flowers are created from paper thin, pale green celluloid. The centers of the flowers are heavily textured celluloid in pastel hues of pink and yellow. The flowers have been wired to the chain with green cloth covered wire. Extremely Fine condition with no damage to celluloid or metal parts. The green cloth covered wire has lost a tiny bit of its green cloth. Difficult to tell whether there are any flowers missing. I am not seeing any areas on the ivory celluloid with marks that would have been left by the remains of the wire, so I am assuming that the rather haphazard arrangement of the flowers was intentional. The spring ring clasp is in very good working condition.
