More about this item
Antique figural creamed corn bakelite brooch in the shape of a tropical bird has fantastic carved and painted details and an embedded and glued old clasp. The front is lacquered, which made it really hard to take a pic head-on due to glare, and the color doesn’t come out just right. If you can in your mind's eye combine creamed corn with butterscotch, you'll have the right color.
It measures 3-3/16" h x 1-7/8" w x 1/8" thick not including the solid but crazily contorted clasp. I've never seen another like it.
Condition is excellent for its age--some of the paint has gone missing, but it's not fatal. There's also a deeper-than-normal scratch on the tail but it still is considered surface as it doesn't penetrate deep enough to make that area vulnerable at all. It’s a really fun and fabulous brooch.
I combine shipping, and ship worldwide. For an international ship quote, please contact me with your country. For combined shipping, either proceed with your purchases and I'll refund any overage over one dollar, or convo me for a combined ship cost prior to purchase.
