Bakelite Delight Custom
Knife
Broadwell’s inventiveness found a 1930’s Bakelite box, and from it
he fashioned this wonderful Art Deco handle, of olive green, for his
third Art Deco knife. Bakelite was the first plastic made from synthetics.
It was all the rage for thousands of products in the 30s, including
household small appliances, because it did not conduct electricity
nor heat. Today, Art Deco Jewelry of Bakelite is very collectable.
Marked 01-3.
