A Circle Scarf Clip in textured gold-tone aluminium - 1960’s Brutalist Scarf Ring
This is a striking vintage scarf ring in a chunky circular shape. It features an indented surface with dotted and random smooth patterns; a little like the surface of the moon. This is a Brutalist Mid Century Modern style dating to the early 1960’s. The gold coloured scarf clip has a ring back and is made of anodised aluminium which is extremely light so very suitable for the purpose. The ring and clip work well. Measuring approximately 3cm by 3cm this scarf clip is marked “Western Germany” which is its place of manufacture and design. It is offered in excellent condition.
Aluminium metal was first used in jewellery manufacture in the Victorian era and it was commercially in use during in the 1860's. It was used to make Boxes, bijouterie and other items. Records indicate that tiny objects made from it were featured in the Paris Expositon Universelle for the first time in 1855. It also became a popular material for costume jewellery just after World War two and is often found used for necklace chains and bracelets in the late 1940s and early 1950s.
