I was lucky to find this piece in mint condition, and many admired it. The head is marbled green lucite, with fine facial details. The crown and eyes consist of clear crystal rhinestones, and some adorn the body that makes up the bangle. The body is coated with black enamel. This motif can also be seen on Hattie Carnegie pieces, because Kenneth Jay Lane used to work for her and when he left, he brought some of his designs with him. When buying this bracelet, always make sure that the head and crown is there; it tends to go missing due to age and wear.
