20x11mm Bicone (10) - Matte Lt Pink/Gold - Vintage Art Deco Style Lucite Beads

Step into the timeless elegance of Art Deco design. For artists, designers, and admirers alike, its sleek lines, geometric patterns, and luxurious materials continue to captivate and inspire. Let this vintage style ignite your creativity across various mediums.

The Art Deco style was born in the 1920s and 1930s, at a time of great industrial growth and cultural advancement. It was first known as 'Style Moderne', but later adopted the name Art Deco from the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes, which took place in Paris in 1925 and showcased the style. Art Deco embodied sophistication, charm, practicality, and innovation.

This whole range of vintage range of beads is from stock we scored at a warehouse clearance haul years and years ago, around 2008 (but the beads were old by the time we acquired them)!  In recent years some of the styles of beads in this range have been reproduced in cheaper plastic materials.  You will notice the difference in the quality if you compare the feel of the bead, as well as the weight. 

Made from lucite, with a beautiful matte coating and metallic gold detailing and are classed as Vintage Beads.

The ends feel like they've been pinched in a bit, but you won't be able to see that in the photos.  Around the middle is a gold patterned band, with a gold line either side.  Then there is more patterning on both sides of the bead, in a triangle shape, with little curls on either side.
