[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 216886, member: 51"]I agree with dress clip, ditto agree that small seed beads may be coral. Very cool piece, I've seen many dress clips, but nothing quite like this. Nice. Is the carving in two pieces? A domino is roughly 1/4 inch thick -- a bit hard to tell the thickness of this clip just looking at the photo, but the carving all the way to the back seems to be thicker than 1/4 inch. I'd keep looking into the maker's mark, a horse or whatever it is. Could you post a more direct close-up photo of the mark? From the side view it almost looks like Chinese characters, and if that is the case there might be a name or maker that could be associated with this. Edit: Now seeing the close-up in the thumbnails. Wondering if these are Chinese characters. Mark hard to make out.[/QUOTE]
