Large American-made Elongated Vintage Dress Clip
This is an extremely sparkly, vintage dress clip set with square and round pastes. This clip has an unusual, elongated shape and is exquisitely constructed with the crystal gems following the curve of the metal in the top section. The square crystals are prong set which is always an indicator of quality.
The dress clip is very similar in style and construction to many Eisenberg clips of the era and is certainly American-made. It was possibly made in the same factories as Eisenberg pieces.
Condition: all of the crystals are clear and in place. There is oxidation to the base metal in places on the reverse. The clip holds well.
Unsigned
Some things are too pretty to ignore. We try to focus on signed items but we'll sometimes include unsigned jewellery of high quality.
How do you rate the condition of a piece?
Excellent - No visible flaws to note but items may exhibit some signs of age related wear
Very Good - Some visible flaws which aren't considered to impair the wearability of the piece
Good - Some more notable flaws but the piece is still in collectible condition
All items are vintage and have lived a previous life, therefore signs of age related wear are to be expected. I do my best to bring attention to any faults in the description and by using the condition scale.
When will I receive my delivery?
We aim to send packages out the following business day after an order is received. All items will be carefully wrapped in a Gadelles box, finished with a ribbon and placed in a discreet bubble lined envelope, or small parcel box if the order contains multiple items.

How will my purchase be packaged?
Great care will be taken in the wrapping of your vintage jewels to protect them in transit and make the unboxing process pleasant for the buyer.
Your piece of jewellery will be wrapped in our Gadelles material, tied with a ribbon and placed in a Gadelles kraft box.
If the item that you've purchased comes with its own original packaging then your item will be sent in that box, wrapped in kraft paper and tied with a ribbon.
Very fragile items will be protected with extra bubble wrap.
International Buyers
We welcome international orders. Please be aware that orders from outside the UK may incur customs duties for which the buyer is responsible to pay on receipt of purchase. These charges vary by country so please review the rules with your relevant customs authority before purchase.
