    Rare carved bakelite single dress clip:

    ~ Highly interesting, uncommon theme - looks to be a pineapple with a critter of some variety...possibly a fox, lizard or cat....or maybe a mythological creature since it is very unusual

    ~ Transparent orange jello color

    ~ Brass or brass toned clip back hardware with cut out design

    ~ Riveted hardware - sure sign of high quality

    ~ I am guessing this to be 1920's to 1930's in age

    ~ Dress clips are actually one of the most very versatile pieces of jewelry in my opinion - they can be clipped to the neckline on your blouse or dress - but also on a purse, pocket, necklace, bracelet - you name it ..... only limited by your imagination

    Ready and waiting for your neckline, collection, or gift giving - you will love it!

    *TESTING = Both simichrome polish and rub and smell positive

    *MEASUREMENTS: About 1 3/4" long x 1" wide x 1/4" thick (not including the clip back - just the bakelite body)

    *MARKS: None that I could find

    *WEIGHT: 7.0 grams on my scale

    *CONDITION: Great vintage condition - no damage to mention at all. The clip back was originally set slightly askew as so many were and there is a small amount of tarnish or discoloration to the metal. I haven't tried to clean or remove it at all. Hardware in good working and holding order.

    View & enlarge photographs to closely inspect fine details and to determine the amount of patina, and/or wear. Most older pieces by nature normally have some degree of both and, unless severe, aren't considered damaged. I will do my best to note anything glaring or distracting. Please utilize the scroll arrows beside the photos to allow yourself the opportunity to view them all.
