Sure resembles one... or, it's a button cover, maybe.

I would feel comfortable calling that a scarf slide.

It's a ladies shoe button cover

The one I found has a pattern number (01419034), and is dated 1922.

great I.D. Spike! If I didn't see your link I never would have believed it, as there is so little holding the darn thing on! I guess this invention wasn't a big seller, or else we'd be finding them all over the place considering such a flimsy way to attach.

Good works Spikes! I was assuming the possibility - you nailed it!

Sorry to dredge up an old post but I thought it was cool that I found the exact same shoe button cover today...
