1900s Celluloid and Rhinestone Edwardian Hair Clips
About the Item
This exquisite pair of antique hair combs date from the 1900s but could conceivably be a bit later, say late 1910s. Manufactured of early celluloid and paste stones and likely made in France or America who excelled at high quality production.
Each comb is comprised of early plastic with a faux tortoise shell effect in rich amber tones. They each have three rows of rhinestone crystals set into an art nouveau crescent style design at the top. The combs secure with multiple straight prongs to enable the hair to stay in place.
In excellent antique condition with no issues; it is increasingly rare to find a matched pair which have been lovingly stored together and cherished for over 100 years. These beautiful pieces would look perfect worn in an up-do or as side combs and would be perfect as bridal accessories.

Rare Paul Poiret Braided Yarn and Silk Tulle Toque
By Paul Poiret
Located in New York, NY
Rare and historical fashion artifact from the house of Paul Poiret and the personal wardrobe of Denise Boulet Poiret. Paul Poiret is known as one of the innovators of 20th Century Haute Couture in Paris.
Poiret established his own house in 1903, and made his name with the controversial kimono coat.He designed flamboyant window displays and threw legendary parties to draw attention to his work; his instinct for marketing and branding was unmatched by any previous designer.
Poiret's house expanded to encompass furniture, decor, and fragrance in addition to clothing. In 1911, he established the company Parfums de Rosine, named for his eldest daughter. Poiret's name was never linked to the company, but it was effectively the first fragrance ever launched by a designer.
Denise Poiret was mother, model and muse to the fantastical larger than life figure who revolutionized Parisian fashion in the early parts of the 20th Century.
This hat was part of Denise Poirets personal wardrobe and is an example of Poirets chic and restrained day wear. Denise Poiret became known for wearing these simple turban-like hats and head treatments throughout social Paris which brought increased notariety to her husband's work.
Madeleine Panizon was initally employed as a designer for Martine (Poiret's decorative Art Branch) and ultimately became the milliner for the house of Poiret...
