A Corolle Brooch, by Lea Stein, circa 1980, the three dimensional laminated celluloid brooch depicting a lady`s face, in brown and gold hues, measures 4.6cm by 6.4cm and An Attila Brooch, by Lea Stein, circa 1990, the three dimensional laminated celluloid brooch depicting a standing cat, in purple, measures 4.6cm by 10.4cm (2). Lea Stein was born in Paris in 1931. She married Fernand Steinberger in the early 1950`s and he perfected a technique for laminated celluloid acetate, known as rhodoid, sometimes interspersed with textiles, lace or metal. This is the material Lea Stein uses to make her whimsical jewellery. It is thought she began producing jewellery in the late 1960`s until 1981, and after a break came back to it in 1988 on a reduced scale, producing only a couple of designs each year.
