This is a great Vintage Siam Siamese Sterling Silver White Niello Dancing Lady Dagger Tie Clasp Tie Bar that measures approx. 1 7/8" X 1/4" at its widest, and is marked SIAM and is also marked STERLING. Tie Clasp is in the shape of a dagger or knife of some sort! This came in a lot of items that while they are old were never sold and are in like new condition! Great looking Tie Clasp!
Please remember that anything handmade is not perfect. There may be some flaws, mostly from manufacture, and possibly from age. I will try to note anything that I see as a major flaw.

Please NOTE, I do not clean any of the jewelry as some collectors prefer to leave the original patina on the piece.
Coin Silver is used a lot in the making of jewelry, especially Native American pieces. Coin Silver is 800 parts to 1000, ie 800/1000 pure silver, whereas Sterling Silver is 925 parts to 1000, ie 925/1000 pure silver.
