Vintage Anson Sword Tie Clip, Gold and Silver Tone, 1950s

A distinctive 1950s Anson sword tie clip, crafted in gold tone with a contrasting silver‑tone grip for a refined two‑metal effect. The blade and hilt are detailed in classic mid‑century style, reflecting Anson’s novelty accessory line from the early post‑war period.
The clip is marked “Anson Pat. No. 2492254”, corresponding to a patent issued in 1949 and used throughout the early 1950s. The patented mechanism provides a secure hold and is one of Anson’s most collectible designs.
In very good vintage condition, with light wear to the gold tone on the front—most noticeable at the tip of the sword but subtle and not distracting when worn. The mechanism is strong and functions smoothly.
