"JELLY BELLY" jewelry
Named for their clear transparent Lucite bellies, "Jelly
bellies" can be both beautiful and whimsical. Most were made in the 1940's,
although some continued to be fashioned into the early 1960's. Collector's
usually agree that in order to qualify as a true "jelly belly", the belly
portion must be made of Lucite, not glass, and must be clear, not colored.
The most coveted pieces are larger pieces with Lucite set in sterling vermeil (gold washed
sterling).
