The Story: Plastic fruit jewelry has a history tied to costume jewelry trends and the use of new materials like celluloid and Bakelite. It gained popularity in the 1930s, inspired by the "Tutti Frutti" designs of fine jewelers like Cartier and the flamboyant style of Carmen Miranda. This trend continued with various iterations through the decades, including the 1950s, 1980s, and even into the late 1990s
