Here's a Jakob Bengel white metal bracelet with pink glass pieces.  I have written a comprehensive description of this Bengel bracelet on my web site - www.gillianhorsup.com.  There is a lot is misinformation about Bengel and pieces described as Bengel that just are not.  This bracelet is Bengel - but as I explain the enamel paint could have been added later.  Please also read my blog under 'Manufacturers' on my web site.  This bracelet has not been used, is ex factory stock and measures 7 1/2 inches approx.  It is priced at £125, reference 2486 B101/33.  A great example of Jakob Bengel's work

This is really unusual - a Lea Stein brooch in the shape of a matchstick!  I have never had this before!  It is obviously one of the older ones.  It does not have the usual v-shaped pin because it would not fit on.  The pin says 'Lea Stein'.  Full details on my web site - www.gillianhorsup.com - ref: 2485 B73/33 Price £68.
