This bold vintage statement necklace is attributed to designer Jan Carlin, renowned for her playful use of Bakelite and celluloid-inspired materials in striking wearable art. Suspended from a chunky green celluloid chain are an eclectic mix of colourful Bakelite charms, including swirled discs, layered geometric forms, checkered accents, apple juice tones and an unusual ‘E’-shaped piece. A true conversation piece, this necklace captures the vibrant spirit of 1980s studio jewellery.
Perfect for
• Collectors of Jan Carlin jewellery • Bakelite and vintage plastic enthusiasts • Bold art-to-wear and statement styling • Colourful retro and contemporary outfits • Gift for collectors of unusual designer jewellery
