It may have held an enamel piece that fell out. Looks nice though

I believe it to be a woman's hair pin with the enamel missing as stated above. It is indeed in the shape of a bow and would have looked very nice in some lovely ladies hair. Good Find!

That is the old Wal-Mart employee name tag from before they slashed all their prices and had to switch to plastic to keep costs down.
Quite a find.

I bet it is worth 1.6 Million or so.

LOL

Seriously though,
Nice find!

There could have been a half of bird sticking off that thing No telling what have been on the pin,hard to say.Some pretty crazy stuff gone bad with the fashion world back then......I'll take it anyday,nice find!!!!

Re: Today's find..Can you identify

It's not a hair clip or barrette, wrong clasp. It's a typical pin clasp. No way you could get that to fasten or stay in your hair; it'd pull your hair out to fasten it (tangle in the clasp), then fall down on the opposite side. Hair clips have wide holders, not pins for fasteners. Definitely a pin. Might be missing something on the front of it, though, like was said. -Noodle

Well I have not a clue what it really is but its cool anyhow! If I was to offer up a guess I might think it was a Sash pin. Lady ties a sash around her waist and has this nice little bowtie to pin it on with........Just a guess!

Steve,
I was in Missouri this weekend and found myself in the local library looking at antique books. Wow! There was a pin that resembled your's. They called it a "horse blanket pin." Rather longated with the classic pin clasp. What are the measurements of your's? The one I saw was 7" long.
