This is a gorgeous Art Deco silver and cultured pearl dress clip, c. 1920s. The clip is probably Japanese and is set with one 6.6mm pearl, 23 2.7mm pearls and three emerald colored stones (synthetic emeralds or glass). The pearls are high quality with no blemishes, nice round shape and good luster. The clip measures 1 3/8" x 1 1/4" and is marked on the back "Silver, 950" (950 is higher grade silver than sterling and is the Japanese standard). It is also signed "M.E.S.C.O" and "SPM". It is in excellent condition - there is a tiny chip in one of the emerald colored stones but this is not noticeable to the naked eye.
