Carved Bakelite Horse Head Brooch with Reins

A carved Bakelite horse head in profile — jet-black, bridle gilded, eye set in amber — with its original corded reins still attached. Figural carved Bakelite is one of the most collected corners of vintage plastic, and the horse head is its icon.

• Carved in profile with real dimensional depth — mane, muzzle, and cheek modeled, not molded flat
• Gilded bridle detail with original corded reins — the detail collectors want present and intact
• Amber-tone eye set into the carving — a small flourish that brings the whole face alive
• 1930s–40s production — the classic era of figural carved Bakelite
