Cherry Amber Deep Carved Rare Bakelite Antique / Vintage Floral Dress Clip Pair Set of 2 - Detailed Flowers with Pierced Peek-a-boo Cut Outs

Fabulous vintage / antique pair of carved pierced bakelite floral dress clips:

~ Rich red licorice or cherry amber raspberry burgundy red wine color

~ Trapezoid geometric shaped

~ Very fine double flower carvings on each clip

~ Pierced cut out work in the centers

~ Riveted silver toned clip hardware

~ Mostly opaque - towards the edges and on the thinner areas of carvings you can see a semi-transparent lighter colored glow when held to a light source

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

*TESTING: Positive test results for bakelite using the Simichrome polish method

*Measurements: 1 11/16" long x 1" wide x 1/4" thick (not included the depth of the hardware)

*Weight: 18.9 grams together on my scale

*Marks: None that I could find

*Condition: Fantastic vintage condition - no damage to mention. The clip back hardware is in great working order. If I had to find a quirk to mention - the clips are set ever so slightly askew as is typical of these old dress clips - you will find that is the case in more pairs (and singles) than not. Intact, rare and lovely in every way

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.
