1920s Vintage Celluloid Flapper Bandeau with Red and White Rhinestones This is the only celluloid bandeau I have seen since 1992. It’s circular, with red and white stones set all around. The construction is also clever - the size adjust by sliding the band through the slot on the back of the flower. The curved tension of the band then pulls it back into the head size as needed. The curved tips keep you from sliding the flower off altogether. It is round in shape rather than oval. But as someone with a long oval head shape, I found it perfectly wearable. The flower does need to go on the side however, not the front or back. Label: none Size - adjustable, maximum 23” Condition - Excellent. No missing stones, although a few have darkened. Price: $275 |
