Mexican Fiesta Girl Jan Carlin Figural Cribtoy Style Brooch utilizing vintage Bakelite methods and materials

Purchased personally from the artist.
I am happy to present this wonderfully fun and rare Little Girl "crib toy" by artist Jan Carlin.
Jan Carlin is the foremost Bakelite jewelry designer recycling vintage lucite and bakelite pieces into fine Retro pieces of jewelry. She has been known to set her pieces with real diamonds and gold.
This gal wearing a super cute Mexican Fiesta hat and her Body consists of a stacked cylinders shaped bodice with a Bow and washer belt ring and ruffled "slip" washer underneath. . Ruffled flat discs and colored beads create the legs and red washer disc shaped feet, the photos show it all! Including the cute hat with the thread tassel. Her hands are scalloped discs. 6.5 inches tall, her head is 1.5 inches across. This little lady has a sweet personality, and one can easily see the allure of her google eyes and "kissy lips" she has to advanced collectors. Iris Apfel had many of Jan's creations in her incredible collection. He is a very large statement piece indeed and sits just as well as a decorative item on a shelf as he does upon one's lapel.

I have a new collection of about a dozen of these recently acquired from Jan Carlin that will be listed this week.

I use small doll stands to display my Jan Carlin Figurals. I can provide the information to order them.
