Some things just get better with age! This probably started life as a red, white and blue patriotic set. Even though it has now mellowed out, it's far from retirement. The little pieces remind us of charming tiny rolling pins. This stunning set is all original. The brass and painted celluloid double links are very well done and wear "the look" of the 1940s. Every bakelite cylinder dangle bead has a tiny glass bead on each end. A delight to wear. Necklace measures app. 15"; Bracelet measures 6 1/4".
