History
  • Bakelite, developed in the early 20th century, became a popular material for costume jewelry in the 1920s and 1930s, reflecting the era's artistic movements and advances in plastics.
  • The 1940s marked a time when designers experimented with bold colors and themes in jewelry, possibly in response to the social and economic challenges of the time.
  • Brooches like this green bakelite apple pin could represent the playful yet practical designs prevalent during the mid-20th century, embodying the spirit of creativity and resourcefulness of that era.
