Collectible Line Vautrin Gilt Bronze Brooch, c. 1945
By Line Vautrin
Located in New York, NY
A collectible gilt-bronze brooch showing a sunlit lion was designed by pioneering French woman jeweler Line Vautrin, France, circa 1945. It is a small but mighty piece weighing 27.72 grams and signed “LV.” Vautrin’s brooch makes the perfect gift for a partner or a unique addition to an artist’s jewelry aficionado’s collection.
Born into a family of metal founders, even as a small child Line Vautrin (1913-1997) was fascinated by her father’s business. She never received a formal art education, but by the time she was 14, she had mastered the skills of casting, chasing, and gilding bronze. At 15, she hit upon the novel concept of making artistic jewelry in gilt metal. She began to sell pieces almost immediately; Vautrin devoted herself to experimentation with new materials then and, indeed, throughout her career but remained committed to bronze. In a time when few women played such a role, she was a pioneering craftswoman known for highly original jewelry enveloped in wordplay and symbology. The turning point came when she hired a stand at the Paris International Exposition...

Multicolor Bakelite Extra-Long Necklace with CribToy Beaded Pendant
Located in Atlanta, GA
This stunning rare Bakelite long necklace was hand-crafted in France in the 1940s. The piece features a beaded design with an articulated crib toy doll pendant. The beaded necklace boasts autumnal colors with a lovely, warm palette of yellow butterscotch, red tea amber, green moss, cocoa brown, toffee brown, caramel brown, and ginger orange, many with marbling and swirling. The necklace has brass hardware links and a spring ring closing clasp. There is no visible maker's mark.
The necklace is in excellent condition, with minimal wear on the brass links.
Measurements: The necklace's total length is 24.41 in (62 cm), the drop is 20.47 in (52 cm), and the pendant is 1.44 in wide (3.7 cm) x 9.07 in long (23 cm).
Note: Bakelite crib toys are used for fashion jewelry.
A new form of Bakelite called Catalin was introduced in 1929, featuring a beautiful range of colors and creating an unbelievably cute aesthetic for these children's objects.
Gone were the old-fashioned silver and ivory teething rattles of the Victorian age. In the early 1930s, children had brightly colored plastic crib toys which were safe and indestructible. The condition of many of them today attests to that.
One of the most popular manufacturers in the United States was Tykie Toys of Piqua, Ohio, which was in business until the late 1940s. Their designs included a range of little doll characters.
Other crib toys designed included bell boys, sailors, soldiers, and black American or African-inspired characters.
There was a huge fascination for anything exotic and people from far away, and the craze for jazz meant that black musicians were trendy at the time.
New York designer Jan Carlin made stunning Bakelite jewelry out of old pieces in the 1970s.
She has made many quirky brooches...
