From the 1930s
The art deco choker by JAKOB BENGEL is made of orange coloured glass elements and large nickelplated metal beads. I was so happy when I found this necklace, I love the shape of the orange elements. I have tried it on with a black dress and it is an absolute sensation. The condition is excellent, the piece can be seen in the book Art Déco Jewelry by Christianne Weber on page 127.
Measurements: Diameter of beads: 5/8 in, glass elements: 1/2 in. x 1 in. total lenght of necklace 18 1/2 in.
It is a very rare german vintage piece and so typical for the short time in germany where machine age design influenced by the BAUHAUS was produced. Already in 1934/35 designs changed and lost their clear lines.
Costume jewelry by Jakob Bengel is up to today modern jewelry which can be worn on many occasions.
In the short period of the 1930ties the company Jakob Bengel designed and manufactured fantastic Bauhaus influenced costume jewelry. This had become possible through various reasons:
For one the relatively new technical possibility to chrome plate or nickel plate brass, another reason is the development of the new material galalith – a synthetic material produced from casein plasticized with water- which could be produced in many cololurs. A third reason is the economically very difficult time where women had to pinch and scrape but didn’t want to give up their individuality.
The pattern book of 1932/ 1933 shows very clearly that a pattern by many combinations of the single elements could be produced in endless variants.
Again and again galalith triangles, semicircles or polygons in combination with metal plates in the same shape are used. Generally the galalith was attached to the metal plates with screws. Usually these elements were used in the center of the necklace, also galalith spheres and semicircles very used.
