Sold for: $30
Description
A large collection of costume jewelry, predominantly featuring mid-to-late 20th-century bohemian and mid-century modern styles. The lot includes a wide variety of necklaces and bracelets composed of organic materials such as carved wood, bamboo, cowrie shells, mother-of-pearl, seeds, and nut husks. Notable among the beaded items are strands of pale green milk glass beads, dyed coral-colored heishi beads, and colorful paper beads. The assortment features several bangles, including carved natural bamboo, dark wood, and amber-toned resin hoops. One distinctive piece is a heavy brass-toned cuff with a large central medallion featuring a red and black enamel triskele motif. A white enameled bangle is decorated with a multi-colored floral pattern. The collection also contains various brooches and pins, including a large orange and yellow enameled metal daisy, a white and yellow enamel daisy, and a small painted wooden hummingbird. One circular brooch features colorful inlaid micro-mosaic style glass and faceted faux gems. Non-jewelry items in the lot include a small wooden miniature book with a metal clasp, hand-painted with the text School Days, a small painted wooden bird figurine attached to a cardboard backing, and a carved wooden pendant shaped like a clog. A small bird figurine on a card features hand-painted characters on the wing that are not legible as a specific name. The brass-toned cuff features a vertical separation through the center of the enameled triskele medallion. Other metal components consist of base metals in brass and silver tones.
