    Pretty sure it's a beetle.

    2 & 3/4" wide, 2" tall! Ruby eyes. Marked SNK. (Made in Korea?) The large cabochon is molded plastic with AB sequins embedded in it that gives the illusion of opal or amber when it has water in it. Silvertone metal. Small round Spring Green-hued AB Rhinestones & Green square rhinestones set in illusion marcasite metal. Fantastic! Not one gem missing!

    Would this be considered a jelly-belly?

      I think it's a bumble bee. Really beautiful. Made in Seoul, Korea.

      I think it's a beetle with it's wings open, no? Would he be considered a jelly belly?

      That one is not properly described, IMO! It's got the same body as mine.

      Gorgeous !
    12. billretirecoll billretirecoll, 7 years ago
      Wow that's nice! It's big enough that you could make it into a belt buckle. I think it's a Busy Bee-tle! :^)
    13. shareurpassion shareurpassion, 7 years ago
      You sure did find another! This is huge.
    14. Celiene Celiene, 7 years ago
      Yeah - the body is probably Lucite, and not plastic. It's very hard. Thank you all for the love!

      I'm not the biggest fan of jewelry Celiene, but every so often I see a piece that I love, and this is one of them!
    16. Celiene Celiene, 7 years ago

      True jelly bellies were produced by Trifari, copied far and wide, now any brooch with a cabochon body is called a jelly belly. What a beautiful brooch, Celiene! :)
    22. antiquerose antiquerose, 7 years ago
      Now this is a BUG - I LOVE !!! Wow !!
    23. Celiene Celiene, 7 years ago
