This 1950s milk-glass-beaded triple-row wrap bracelet has round faux-mother-of-pearl plagues on each end decorated with brass filigree and flowers of tiny milk glass beads and diamanté. This lovely wire bracelet is probably from Japan, which produced a lot of very nice costume jewelry for export to the U.S. in the 1950s. This bracelet coordinates well with other milk-glass pieces from the same decade — scroll down to see them.

QuickviewMilk Glass Bead, Diamanté & Gold Machine Age Earrings by Miriam Haskell
Vintage Earrings, 1940s Jewelry, Vintage Miriam Haskell JewelryUSD$150.00These Miriam Haskell earrings with milk glass beads and disks, rhinestone rondelles, and gold-tone findings have a real Machine Age look and associated movement. However, the French clips date them to the late-1940s. I still consider these earrings to be Art Deco in style, and I’ve seen the same motif used by this designer (Frank Hess) on earlier pieces. Whatever the style, these ear clips are lots of fun! Scroll down to see some coordinating pieces in milk glass as well as a dress clip/brooch designed by Frank Hess in the same motif.
