This is a vintage SWANK sword motif tie clip, likely from the 1940s-50s, although the exact age and material are unknown. This design is highly sought after and was frequently featured in advertisements of the time. It could also be used as a money clip or scarf clip, depending on how you arrange it. Markings: SWANK Length: Approximately 8.6 cm When worn, it gives the impression of a sword piercing the tie, making for a playful and stylish accessory. It complements any tie color! Adjust the angle to your liking. Please refer to the ruler in the photos for size reference. I've only wiped it dry to avoid uneven coloring from improper cleaning. Enjoy the unique patina of this antique piece. It's approximately 70 years old. There are minor scratches and signs of aging.
