    Here is another nice example of brilliant jewelry designer Jakob Bengel's work. I like the elegant association of chrome and black glass beads in this necklace (total length: 56 cm= approx. 22"). The chrome is a bit corroded in places, but it is still very wearable.
    I found it at a yard sale for 13 euros, but sshh, this is a secret... ;)

      Wonderful! How would I know one of these were maid of him if I ever come across one? Are they marked?
    2. Betty1978 Betty1978, 9 years ago
      Hi! Thank you. No unfortunatly, most of them aren't marked (a few of them are marked "guarantie" on the clasp). But the style is very recognizable. I carefully examined Bengel's jewelry on Sheryl's Art Deco website (http://www.sheryls-artdeco.co.uk/bengelnecks1.html). Go take a look: it is a great reference!

      Thank you very much Betty for the great information!

      Betty after your advice I found a necklace that I bought. I believe it's art deco machine age but don't know the origin of it. If you feel like it I would be greatful for your opinion on it. Have a nice weekend :)

      By the way, I loved the page you refered to. Me bying the necklace was because I like the style. If it's not a Bengel one that fine :)
