Parrot Pearls Ceramic Blue Morning Glories Floral Necklace
1980s ceramic bead necklace by PARROT PEARLS features a floral theme, with floral and leaf pendants. The three central floral pendants each depict a trio of periwinkle blue flowers which I believe are morning glories. Although it's difficult to see from the photo, the clusters are three-dimensional with yellow stamens in the center. Pale green leaves are dimensional, with veining detail on the surface. Tubular and round beads are strung on nylon filament; total length is approximately 18 1/2". Parrot Pearls signature bead is located near metal screw-barrel clasp. (Parrot Pearls was owned and operated by San Francisco Bay Area artist Candace Loheed, who also created ceramic jewelry under the Ruby Z line.)
Condition is very good overall, with some breakage to the yellow stamens inside the flowers, mild fleabite chipping to a couple flower edges, mild fleabite edge chipping to some of the blue tubular beads. - $140
Featherweight Celluloid Clamper Bracelet ~ Sumptuous Peachy Pink Floral
What a little treasure, and an unusual example of the carved celluloid floral. This is a very lightweight "featherweight" or pressed celluloid side-hinged clamper bracelet, intricately carved in a floral motif. The gorgeous peachy-pink hue makes this looks like a wedding cake! Take a look at the pinwheel swirl type designs! 1" wide, 2 1/4" inside width. Condition is excellent, with hinge/tension in good working order. - $120
