20x14mm Nugget (10) - Matte 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, these have a beautiful matte metallic coating and are classed as Vintage Beads.

These beads are like nuggets with pinched in sides.  They have a smooth finish, with no patterning.  The hole goes through the longest length of the bead.

Circa:  1980-1990s

Measurements:  20mm long x 14mm across with a 1.5mm threading hole.

Quantity per pack:  10

Please note:  For the matte gold styles, I would not recommend these for hard wear areas where the coating can be chipped away.
