Monday is Fun Day - Cloisonne Jazz Age Bead

On a trip to the International Quilt Market years ago, I came across a vendor with the most wonderful assortment of beads, buttons, pins, and trinkets.  

I bought this cloisonné bead depicting a Jazz Age party.  

It's shaped like a discus - fuller in the center, sloping outwards along the edge.  The diameter is 2.5" and it's  .5" tall in the center.  It feels heavy, but it only weighs one ounce.

I never came up with a good idea on what to do with it, but I think I have one now.
