Art Deco Rhinestone Fur Clip

The era commonly referred to as “Art Deco” became known as such after the Exposition International des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes (which was held in Paris in 1925). The Exposition was dedicated for the most part to the jewelry arts.  The jewelry of the Art Deco period features modern, almost industrial designs consisting of geometric lines and angles.  Art Deco jewelry is highly prized by collectors around the world.  This piece is classic in design and magnificent in its execution.  A fur clip, it can also be adapted as a brooch, scarf clip, choker (when clipped to a ribbon tied elegantly on one’s neck) or belt buckle.  The red/black/silver rhinestone combination is breathtaking.
