This is a Hard-To-Find, VINTAGE, Like-NEW, MINT Condition "Gold Plated Textured Chain Bar Clutch Back Tie Clip Stud" from the mid-1950s. My friend's father purchased this Tie Tack in 1957 and wore it on special occasions through the mid-1980s. Packed away for a move in 1988, it was never unpacked and only recently rediscovered; it has been safely and securely stored for 25 years. In MINT Condition, there are NO marks, stains, odors, scratches, or other damage; it comes from a smoke-free, pet-free home. Measuring approximately 5/8ths of an inch tall and approximately 3/8ths of an inch wide, the pin back with chain and bar works smoothly and holds securely; it is NOT Marked. This HANDSOME Gold Plated Tie Tack has a lightly textured surface with smooth sides for an ELEGANT RETRO Look. With a Modernist Mid-Century "Mad Men" style, this gentlemen's fashion Stud can be worn with a Tuxedo, puff tie, jabot, ascot, other neckwear or on your lapel and looks equally nice on a Woman as it does on a Man. The MODERN design is CLASSIC with the Gold Plate having a FABULOUS, SLEEK, BOLD and SOLID look that is right on track with today's fashions. EXQUISITELY crafted, it is the PERFECT accessory to compliment your favorite suite or neck tie! With an abundance of class, it is a SPECTACULAR, SOPHISTICATED example of mid-century modern Men's jewelry that is simply BREATHTAKING, everyone will notice when you add some zing to your Tie with this premium Tie Tack Stud. It will add a STYLISH finish to work attire, as well as formal and dressy clothing.
