Product Description
Bakelite materials were introduced in 1907 by Dr. Leo Baekland. The process produced a hard, durable product for the manufacture of many items. In the early 1920's the process was altered with the use of a milk protein and similar items were produced only with a rainbow of spectacular and brilliant colors and marbleing patterns. This was called FRENCH BAKELITE or GALALITH which is how our dice were made. LUCITE was introduced in the 1930's. It was more cost effective to produce than the Bakelite. The Lucite process produced items with brilliant luster, seamless patterns and a jewel like transparency. Our Lucite dice are the transparent and semi-transparent type dice, either shown here or in our other listings. None of these processes are being used today however the items that have been made, including our dice, continue to rise in value as one of the most sought after collectables. Our Collection is the only one of its kind available for sale. It was a rare factory find outside of Paris, France and is a collection of Rare, Vintage French Bakelite (Galalith) and Lucite Dice in spectacular and brilliant colors and styles.
