AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful silvered metal 1920s/1930s Art Deco necklace with sections of green plastic and green-painted parts in the style of Jacob Bengel (it could also be by J. Bengel; unfortunately I do not own the expensive catalogs of J. Bengel). Exceptionally beautiful and rare design!
Jakob Bengel was a factory for chains and fashion jewelry, founded by Jakob Bengel in 1873 in Idar-Oberstein, Germany. In the twenties and thirties of the last century it became one of the leading manufacturers of costume jewelry in the Art Deco style.
During the Bauhaus and Art Deco period, designers sought new materials and inspiration to produce costume jewelry.
Inspired by the French avant-garde and other trendsetters in fashion, such as Coco Chanel, Bengel began designing experimental jewelry and combined brass and chrome with geometric shapes of colored Galalith.

Good condition - used with small signs of wear.

Magnificent piece of jewelry!

Necklace length: 46 cm.
Weight: 12.8 grams.
N.B. Here and there there are irregularities regarding the green-painted parts. Not distracting but that is a matter of personal taste; this is a piece of jewelry about 100 years old!
