I believe these to be cloak clips from the Victorian Era.
My darling husband purchased them years ago from a local antique shop and gave them to me as a gift.
One has a pearl missing and looks to have had a repair to the wing.
Fully hallmarked for 9 ct gold and makers mark-I can see the D and the Australian fleece but that is all I can decipher.
That chain is too delicate for holding a cloak together. I belive these were used for hanging your glasses on. An eyeglass Chatelaine.
Just beautiful Betty. Very Edwardian Australian!
The chain does look to fine for a cloak!A big thank-you Celine for your time and knowledge :))I would not have known otherwise!!
Thank-you racer4four :)I think your right-they are Edwardian.I now know what they were used for and from which era! Very happy:)
Really beautiful Betty.....love them!!!
Thanks TassieDevil!! Glad you love them:)
