    I believe these to be cloak clips from the Victorian Era.
    My darling husband purchased them years ago from a local antique shop and gave them to me as a gift.
    One has a pearl missing and looks to have had a repair to the wing.
    Fully hallmarked for 9 ct gold and makers mark-I can see the D and the Australian fleece but that is all I can decipher.

      That chain is too delicate for holding a cloak together. I belive these were used for hanging your glasses on. An eyeglass Chatelaine.
