scarce vintage antique blue KINGFISHER FEATHER JEWELRY Clip tian-tsui

Description

[zipedit]
;
ITEM TYPE
: single antique kingfisher feather clip ( maybe dress, scarf, shoe or fur clip? Pin it on by letting the prongs hold in place. Prongs are rather sharp, so putting on delicate material might not be a good idea....)
MATERIAL
: base metal, with kingfisher feathers
MAKER/MARKS
: unmarked, but these were from China
DIMENSIONS
: approx 1 1/2" x 1 1/4"
CONDITION
: The metal base is darkened and uneven in color.  The feathers are mostly present, but some damage and worn places (see photo for best looks at this piece) These old kingfisher pieces are highly coveted ....and due to age and natural fragile materials, many are imperfect....but still very desirable!
Thanks for shopping with me!
Please see photos!
