About the Item

A Vintage Ciro Paste Double Dress Clip Brooch. Wear as a brooch or as a pair of dress clips. An effortlessly stylish work of Art Deco craftmanship. Since 1917 CIRO have enjoyed a reputation for high quality imitation jewellery and pearls that prove affordably extravagant. Their early creations highly coveted by the elegant flapper girls and early stars of the screen, the stage was set. Ciro jewels embody timeless glamour; their ability to evolve with the times retaining a hold on glossy magazine appearances and a home at one of London’s premiere jewel destinations, Burlington Arcade. During the 1920s & 30s the Art Deco style reigned supreme. The bold new look flowed through to fashion introducing streamlined designs that relied on ornamentation for the ultimate touch of prestige and glamour. The dress clip was born. Along with shoulder length earrings dazzling below the chin-length bob, jewelled buttons and clasps, the dress clip was renowned for decorating the necklines and the furs of the fashionistas of the day. Each one a wearable work of art and masterful feat of miniature engineering the Art Deco dress clip remains a cherished possession and style statement forever more.
