Description

Unsigned but distinctive Elzac pin measures approx 1 7/8" x 2.75" inches. This unique 1940s ethnic mask brooch has a green ceramic face and stylized green lucite turban. It reflects the history of the time in that rhinestones and metals were scarce during WWII, so many jewelry designers became more creative with their use of plastics and other non-traditional materials. Elzac was one of the more innovative designers of the 1940s. Clasp holds well and works smoothly. Very good condition.
