1970s Guillemette L’Hoir Paris Bakelite Sculptural Necklace

About the Item

1970s necklace from none other than Guillemette L'Hoir Paris- designer of avant-garde art inspired jewelry made from Galalith. This piece is made out of a taupe and magenta bakelite in a unique, wavy structure. Beaded along the back of the neck, featuring a screw in closure for easy on and off. Signed at the back of the necklace. From the 70′s, would you believe! Galalith (known as French Bakelite), was a popular material for Art Deco jewelry as it was easy to manipulate and perfect for mass production. The master of this plastic jewelry though was a guy from the 1970s called François Schoenlaub, who was so enchanted with the deco jewelry that he travelled to France, bought one of the few remaining Galalith factories and set up his company Guillemette L’Hoir – Paris. For many years he produced pieces for the Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris. This necklace measures 14in long and 6in wide.

  • Ethiopian Opal Bead Necklace, 680.00 Carats
    Located in New Orleans, LA
    Thirty-four solid opal beads totaling approximately 680.00 carats line the length of this eye-catching necklace. The graduated gems are an impressive size and perfectly matched, with each exhibiting a high level of translucence and a rainbow of colors. Opals are not cut into beads very often, as they are usually found in thin layers, and bigger deposits are exceptionally rare. Cutting the round structure also creates a great deal of excess– about 90% of the rough opal is cut away to create just one bead. To find 34 matching beads of this size and exceptional quality is extraordinary beyond compare. Opals are truly the stuff of legend. It was the Romans who first classified the black opal as a precious gemstone, believing that it was a source of good fortune. Since that time, the black opal has found its way into the crown jewels of many nations, including the Holy Roman Empire...
