Duettes, Dress & Fur Clips
Dress clips were popular from the late 1920's through the 1950's, with fur clips being introduced in 1937 (Romero). Pairs of dress clips and fur clips were mounted in removable pinback frames to be worn together as a single brooch. Many companies and designers made their own versions, with some being patented and others not. A few were: Coro, Trifari, Polcini, Eisenberg, Haskell, Leo Glass, Calvaire, Fred Block, Mazer, Boucher, Reinad, Nettie Rosenstein, Hattie Carnegie, Deja, Reja, Staret, Vogue.(courtesy Illusion Jewels)
