ANTIQUE ART NOUVEAU SILVER CHATELAINE BELT CLIP SMILING MAIDEN WOMAN HARD TO FIND. Stunning and in immaculate condition. The silver plating is 99% intact.
Back in the day this accessory would have slipped over a woman's belt and used to support a purse or other small items normally suspended from a chatelaine clip. Some women added a decorative sash or hanky to the clip to draw the eye downward thereby elongating the waist (dip waister). This would make an excellent addition to your collection.
