Vintage 1940s pink Bakelite dress clip. The dress clip features carved Bakelite plastic with a silver tone clip. Bakelite was an early resin made from plastic, developed by Leo Baekeland in 1907. Bakelite became popular in the 1920s to 1940s, it was popular due to the variations of colours and its durability. Today Bakelite is a popular collector's item.
These beautiful dress clips can be fastened around the neckline or lapels on a dress, coat or jumper. They can be used to hold a scarf in place. Dress clips are very versatile and are excellent on thinner fabric compared to brooches. Dress clips embody the whimsical and creative spirit of costume jewellery as they can be worn in so many different ways.
MEASUREMENT
The dress clip measures 5.3cm / 2" in height and 2.5cm / 1" n width.
CONDITION
Very Good. The clip is slightly misaligned, this would have been from when the piece was originally made.
