Bakelite Bangle. Unusual Shape. Brown Wood on one side, Yellow Bakelite on the other. Great Vintage Find.
In all my years of bakelite shops collecting, I have not encountered one such as this beauty. The unusual shape suggests that perhaps this may have originally been used as a handle for something, perhaps a purse or tote bag.
However, it now stands alone as a fabulous, scarce bangle. It is very wearable - it will fit the wrist of any arm which can wear a standard bakelite bangle (2.5" opening).
Yellow bakelite on one side, brown wood on the other, with a width of about 3/4".

There is a bit of expected surface wear on the bakelite, please view photos for best description.
