This delightful lily of the valley fur clip is so naturalistically sculpted you might mistake it for a true flower. Silver-tone metal leaves are cold enameled in green with white rhinestone accents. Pearls and white rhinestones form the spray of lilies. Perfect in its simplicity. A fur clip is a brooch that fastens with two long, hinged prongs. The long, sturdy prongs are intended for wear on furs but will work well on any heavy fabric. This highly collectible piece was designed by Alfred Philippe for Trifari and is marked "Des.Pat.No.11919," and with the Crown Trifari mark. Circa 1940.
Trifari was a highly collectible, high-end costume jewelry manufacturer producing during the 20th Century. Designer Alfred Philippe was the head designer for Trifari from 1930 until 1968. Philippe also designed for Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels.
Details: The brooch measures 2.78" by 1.26". In Very Good Vintage Condition. You should always expect some wear on vintage and antique pieces; we consider it part of the charm.
