Vintage Blueberry Juice Lucite Beetle Bangle

Comment on Vintage Blueberry Juice Lucite Beetle Bangle

Encapsulated Jewel Beetles in blueberry juice lucite. These bangles are from the 1960s and have become quite collectible. I used to see these quite a bit at thrift stores and vintage boutiques over the years but they are a lot harder to find these days due to a resurgence in popularity I believe is partly due to fashion icon Iris Apfel. She was an avid collector of lucite bangles, but these beetle and other insect bangles in particular and it seems as her popularity grew as did this style of bangle. Since she’s passed (may the high priestess of fashion rest in peace) interest in these bangles has exploded. Approx 3 3/4″ in diameter with a 2 3/4″ in diameter opening and 3/4″ thick.
