Vintage Bakelite PIn c. 1940s Western Horse

Vintage 1940s Bakelite Horse Pin

The Jewelry Stylist is offering this terrific example of a 1940s Bakelite Horse pin with two hanging shoes and a central horse-shoe charm/pendant. This stylized horse pin has wonderful enamel detail outlining the eyes, main and bit. These type of stylized figural pins were a mainstay in American costume jewelry history during the 1940s. Myriad of designs were carved and made from Bakelite or Catalin. Catalin carvers were routinely sought by businesses for their adeptness in carving these durable material. A perfect gift for the collector of vintage Bakelite jewelry.
