Floral Scarf Clip in a pink toned aluminium - 1950s Scarf Ring (Sold)
This vintage scarf ring is the one featured in use on this category. It is holding a nice vintage Richard Allen silk scarf in place. This is a pretty vintage scarf ring in a nice rounded square shape. The outer edge of the vintage scarf clip consists of floral and scrolled patterns. Then there is a panel of creamy pearlised Lucite which looks very like Mother of Pearl. Upon the faux mother of pearl lucite piece are four neat open flowers. The metal on this vintage scarf clip has a pleasing pink tone to it, like a very pale copper. The 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. 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. Measuring approximately 3.5 cms by 3.5 cms in this m1950's scarf clip is in excellent condition.
