Coro Duettes


Coro Enameled Flower Rhinestone Duette Dress Clip Pin

This Coro Duette had no pin frame when I bought the two dress clips. I have a frame for it now that fits, but it’s silver instead of gold. The dress clips each measure 1 /4” by 1 ¼”. They have Pat. 1852188 marked on the clip tip! This is the number on the patent filed in 1931 by A E Phinney for the actual clip mechanism. When they are together it measures 2 ½” by 1 ¾”. The design is A. Katz, probably around the late 30’s. It is in excellent shape with all rhinestones present and lively! Matter-of fact, these two look very shinny and newer, I’m wondering if Coro put this design out later again?
