Up for your consideration is a charming vintage mid-century modern black plastic bird dress clip, dating from the 1940s to 1950s. This retro novelty accessory is beautifully designed as a perching bird (reminiscent of a crow or blackbird) in profile, featuring a dense, midnight-black molded plastic body nestled in a stamped silver-tone base metal frame.

The piece is beautifully detailed with a grooved wing panel, fan-shaped silver tail feathers, an architectural perching claw, and a hand-painted white eye accent. The reverse side features its original, heavy spring-loaded double-prong mechanism designed to clamp firmly onto coat lapels, jacket pockets, sweaters, or dress necklines. It serves as a fantastic, high-contrast conversation piece or a wonderful addition to a mid-century animal costume jewelry collection.

Dimensions: Measures approximately 1.75" long by 1" tall.

Note to Buyers: This is an authentic vintage mid-century dress clip. It is in very good structural shape with crisp front graphics and zero chips to the plastic panels. The rear metal spring plate shows typical, expected age tarnish and light surface tracking as documented in the close-up photos, which does not affect the strong functionality or clamping tension of the clip. Please review all high-resolution photos carefully to evaluate the condition details prior to purchase.
