HANNE'S EBAY TIP OF THE DAY: GRACE JONES ANDY WARHOL PROVENANCE BAKELITE BRACELET

Looks like this is becoming Andy Warhol day at Hanne's Art and Culture Blog. Now this looks and sounds like something really special and unique: "You are now bidding on a vintage Hattie Carnegie Bakelite bracelet. This is a large stretch bracelet with alternating round and carved Budda beads. I am not as familiar with Bakelite as I am with gemstones and I was told that each of these colors have names so please bare with me. There is a round mottled green with yellow and translucent brown faux tortoise shell beads. The beads alternate with long wooden beads that appear to me to possibly be striped zebra wood. This comes from a man who purchased these from Grace Jones, the disco queen, who had bought it from the Andy Warhol collection. This is really vintage, not modern, and will come with a letter of authenticity from the gentlemen who purchased them from her." Bid here.
