Vivid red Lucite is awash in glittery red and gold tone swirls in this fabulous clamper. The 6 ½" inner circumference ensures a nice fit for small to medium wrist sizes but as it is spring hinged, it accommodates large wrist sizes as well. It is widest (7/8") and thickest (5/8") at the hinge and then tapers to tusk-like points (¼" wide, 3/8" thick) at either end. Each "tusk" is capped at the hinge by translucent red Lucite with a pebbly texture. Very good vintage condition with a scratch on one side and a flaw line under the surface. Neither detract when it is worn and you will have to look closely to find them. Priced accordingly.
