A lovely true vintage dress clip, with the iconic seahorse design, by Jean Painlevé (JHP).

Painlevé designed the jewellery to accompany a documentary film he released in 1935, L’Hippocampe (or, the Seahorse,) and they have since become collectable Art Deco early plastic pieces. The design has been called the earliest example of film promotional merchandising.

In really nice, vintage condition, with minimal signs of age and use. Please be sure to check out all of the photos.
