Five pieces of mid-century costume jewellery including signed examples. The collection features a silver-tone link bracelet by Jay Kel, set with a central row of rectangular and square-cut light blue rhinestones flanked by two rows of clear circular rhinestones; the reverse of the clasp is marked JAY KEL within a circular border. Also included is a two-tone expandable metal watch strap by Speidel, featuring a textured gold-tone upper surface and a silver-tone underside, with the maker name Speidel stamped in script on the reverse of each link. The group further comprises a plastic bangle with a cream-coloured interior and a pale green-coloured exterior band inset with two rows of clear circular rhinestones; a silver-tone link bracelet composed of seven decorative openwork links, each set with a round pink cabochon and finished with a fold-over clasp and safety chain; and a three-strand bracelet of white floral beads interspersed with small spherical spacer beads. Dimensions measured against a ruler: Watch strap length approx. 16.5 cm Pink cabochon bracelet length approx. 16.5 cm Bangle diameter approx. 7.5 cm. Condition: The items are in generally good vintage condition with signs of age and wear. The Speidel watch strap shows significant surface wear and visible green oxidation (verdigris) between the links on both sides. The white floral bracelet shows light surface dirt. The rhinestone-set pieces appear to be complete with no missing stones immediately apparent, although they exhibit light surface scratching and minor accumulation of dust in recessed areas. The silver-tone finishes show general light surface wear consistent with age.
