BRASS FILIGREE 1940s Glove or Skirt Holder with Chain Attachment
If you love pieces that make you stop and think this is the piece for you!
These are commonly called Glove Holders that one can attach to their purse and clamp their gloves into place while not in use, but the French also used these in the Victorian Era as skirt holder. You’d gather a section of your skirt, clamp it in, have the chain attached to your belt, and you can keep your hem clean while walking through dirt and puddles!
Such a cool history!
