Amethyst Gold Flower Cluster Aquamarine Flower Pearl Vintage Clasp / Knitwear Clasp / American Antique Jewelry

When I first began collecting vintage jewelry, beyond cameo brooches and celluloid pieces, my absolute favorite were these types of clasps. I stumbled upon them while watching old films, seeing how women would adorn their knit cardigans with them, which I found quite unique and charming. This sparked my collection. Vintage clasps are genuinely hard to find nowadays, and those in excellent condition are even rarer. This batch has been collected over some time, and their pricing reflects this rarity. I will be releasing them gradually. This particular piece has a wonderful texture but is a pre-owned item. Please refrain from comparing it to new items or holding it to overly high standards. 🙏🏻 ⚜️ Circa 1950s ⚜️ Marked: PAT.PEND ⚜️ Shows normal signs of wear; the metal chain has minor rust spots. Overall, it presents well. Please examine the photos carefully. ⚜️ Materials: Alloy, Rhinestones, Seed Pearls ⚜️ Clasp approx. 3cm, Chain length approx. 11cm The clasp on this piece features a sawtooth edge, making it ideal for securing knitwear such as cardigans. It may leave marks on finer fabrics. 👀 Kindly note that all measurements are taken with a tape measure and may have slight variations, which is normal. As jewelry pieces are not perfectly square, the dimensions provided represent the longest and widest points. 🖤 This listing is for one clasp only.

Please understand that minor imperfections are common. 💚 We do our best to present the items clearly in the photos on the page, and we ask that you examine them closely. 💚 Vintage jewelry are items with a history; they will inevitably show signs of wear after being cherished through the years. 💚 The jewelry in this shop will not be modified (e.g., clip-on earrings will not be converted to post earrings). 💚 If you are new to "Vintage Jewelry," we kindly ask you to consider carefully before making a purchase. 💚 If an item arrives damaged to the point of being unwearable, a refund can be issued. However, refunds will not be provided for reasons such as "not as imagined," size discrepancies, color variations, or damage not incurred during transit. ____________________________________ This clasp looks lovely clipped onto jackets, vests, or shirts. It's a wonderful accent piece that can also suit men. The image below features Emma Pillsbury from a TV show. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51066586707_a22a4b8edf_o.jpg
