This vintage jewelry item is an aeronautical money clip crafted in 14k yellow gold, weighing 6.5g and measuring 6.4cm long, 11mm wide and 6.5mm deep. This authentic vintage jewelry is a money clip from the late 1930's, early 1940's depicting a miniature single-piece, dual-blade propeller used for small, low-powered airplanes also referred to as 'air-screw'. Memorable of World War II, the cone-shaped center comprises a hollow 14k yellow gold half-bead, representing the rotating mechanism of a propeller to which the extended blades are adjoined. A diaphanous plaque of stylized rectangular format constitutes the gallery, ornately rounded at one finial, stamped with the purity mark of '14k' and scrolled at the other extremity. This unusual propeller inspired aeronautical money clip in a vintage jewelry item that is utilized with a well-constructed friction mechanism.
