Another great vintage find. These are signed "KT F " on the tip of one clip and further up on the other one. KTF stands for Trifari, Krussman & Fishel and was first introduced in 1935. Gustavo Trifari & Leo Krussman went into business in 1918. Carl Fishel joined Trifari & Krussman and they incorporated in 1925. Their preeminent designer at the time was Alfred Philippe who joined as a designer in 1930 and retired in 1968. Each piece has the #41 incised near the hinge of the clip (not able to photograph). My research indicates that this number represents the stone setter. Each measures approximately 2" long. This pair of clips are rhodium plated on base metal in a chevron shaped and set with clear, brilliant baguette rhinestones. I have done nothing to clean this or any repairs to it. This is, however a vintage piece and does show wear consistent with age and use and there is some pitting on the back of the clips. I have taken pictures in various lighting
