History
  • Bakelite was first developed in the early 20th century and became popular in the 1920s and 1930s, often associated with the Art Deco movement.
  • By the 1940s, bakelite pieces, like brooches, were recognized as both fashion statements and symbols of craftsmanship in the post-war era.
  • The popularity of bakelite in mid-century American jewelry reflects broader trends in materials and design preferences during that time period.
