1930s - 1940s Silver Marcasite Dress Clip Art Deco Stylised Leaf (sold)
Dress Clips are a really versatile piece of vintage costume jewellery. If you would like to know more about other ways to wear and enjoy vintage dress clips do take a look at 'How to Wear Those Dress Clips' which is on this website in the 'Information and In the Press Section'.
This chic dress clip has an openwork design reminiscent of a stylised leaf. It is most certainly art deco and hails from Continental Europe as it bears the 935 silver mark on its reverse. Measuring a little over 1.5 inches by just under 1 inch this dress clip is in excellent condition with a super strong clawed clip to ensure it will stay securely in place. This clip is fabulous when worn on a little black dress as the fabric shows through the open panels giving a striking contrast between the frock and the jewel. Set with lots of well cut natural marcasite stones it has a subtle shine to it.
