Epitomizing the elegance of the Art Deco era, this extraordinary double clip brooch by Raymond Yard captures the geometric precision and timeless luxury that define the period. Featuring an impressive total of 18.80 carats of diamonds, the brooch is set with 4 Old European and Old Mine cut diamonds totaling 6.10 carats, complemented by 122 Old European cut diamonds, 48 baguette diamonds and 3 fancy-shaped diamonds totaling 12.70 carats. Its design offers versatility, allowing it to be worn as a single brooch or separated into two dress clips. The design is set in platinum and comes complete in its original box.

During this period, dress clips became beloved accessories, reflecting the glamour of Hollywood and the style of leading ladies like Jean Harlow, Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich. They gained widespread appeal as moviegoers sought to emulate the dazzling looks of stars. Renowned houses like Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels and Raymond Yard rose to the occasion, creating exquisite designs that defined the era's fashion.

Considered one of the great Art Deco jewelers, Raymond Yard was renowned for his works that display high-quality gemstones in exquisitely crafted platinum settings. In an age of American enterprise, the iconic New York jeweler created one-of-a-kind jewels for famous clients, including the Rockefellers, Vanderbilts, Woolworths and DuPonts. Credited with elevating the Art Deco aesthetic to new heights, his classic designs are highly coveted by fine jewelry collectors.
