Galalith is a type of material that was popular in the early 20th century. Galalith, also known as milk stone, is made from casein, which is a protein found in milk.
It was introduced in the late 19th century and was used to make a variety of objects, including jewellery.
Galalith necklaces were popular in the Art Deco period and were often made in bold, geometric designs. They were typically dyed in bright, bold colours, and sometimes combined with other materials such as glass or metal to create striking visual effects.
Today, Galalith necklaces are prized by collectors for their historical significance and unique beauty.
This statement necklace is an eye-catching piece with French hand-cut chunky rectangular pieces forming a Deco design, with inlay metal strips.
