Vintage 1920s Jakob Bengel Black Galalith Necklace – SOLD

Jakob Bengel 1930s black chunky square galalith and chrome necklace.  There are 3 LARGE black galalith dice beads that are separated by chrome beads and bead caps.   It has a snake style chain and a bolt ring clasp. Similar style of necklaces can be found in the Jacob Bengel Art Deco Schmuck book.

I have recently bought a collection from a collector of Jakob Bengel but this hasn’t been worn in the 50 years that she has had it.

Bengel pieces aren’t signed, sometimes they may have a mark on the clasp ring which reads – Guaranteed or Gesch but that is as much as I’ve ever seen. I believe they did have swing tags, hence they were removed before wearing.

Size: 18 1/4″ end to end –  The black cube beads are 1/2″

Could be lengthened with additional chain/links.

Condition: Excellent Vintage

Age: 1930s
