Vintage Alfred Dunhill Gold-Tone Brick Pattern Tie Clip with Original Box
A masterclass in classic mid-century British luxury accessories, this authentic vintage Alfred Dunhill tie clip combines geometric architecture with understated elegance. The front face features an exquisite, textured "running bond" brick wall motif, meticulously engraved to capture the light beautifully. Anchoring the center of the bar is a high-polished circular emblem enclosing Dunhill’s signature stylized lowercase "d".
Crafted with a premium spring-loaded crocodile clasp mechanism, the tie bar is designed to sit securely without damaging delicate tie silks. The interior arm of the clasp is cleanly stamped with the classic elongated "dunhill" maker's hallmark along with the official "AD" sponsor cartouche mark. Housed in its original black leatherette, gold-trimmed presentation case with a cream silk lid lining, this is an exquisite addition to any luxury vintage menswear collection.
Overall Condition: Excellent vintage condition.
Plating & Surface: The gold-tone finish is incredibly bright with no visible thinning, brassing, or deep scratches. The textured brick engravings remain sharp and defined.
Mechanism: The spring-loaded hinge mechanism operates smoothly with excellent tension and alignment.
Box Condition: The original vintage case is in great structural condition. The hinge is snappy, the gold border trim is intact, and the interior lining exhibits only minor faint age-related storage marks.
