A stunning French diamond double clip brooch c.1935, the matching pair of clips have an asymmetric three-dimensional form and are set throughout with round brilliant cut diamonds in both pavé and claw settings as well as baguette cut diamonds in tapering channel set scrolls, all in platinum, the clips fit together into a frame transforming them into a single brooch for maximum versatility of wear. Having fallen out of favour these double clips are becoming popular once again dur to their versatility and the current fashion for wearing them on collars, cuffs, lapels, necklines, waistbands, wristbands and in the hair. Both men and women have been sporting them in a variety of ways on the red carpet recently, breathing new life into a vintage style. This particular brooch is packed with high-quality well-matched diamonds and transforms easily from clips to brooch. It is a lovely piece that will add interest and sparkle to all sorts of outfits and occasions.
