黄铜 - 领带夹 - 抬裙器

维多利亚时期的古董裙撑提箍或裙装升降器：Fyfe 的海贝壳设计。
Such accessories were used from the 1870s onwards used to lift heavy hemlines out of street mud and dirt.
此类配件自1870年代起使用，用于将夸张下摆从街道泥污中提起，避免沾污。
A scissor-type skirt grip, made of silver plated brass, with ball finials and locking plate shaped as a shell.
一种剪刀式裙扣，由镀银黄铜制成，带球形饰钮和呈海贝形状的锁扣板。
The plate is pushed down to open the wheels at the bottom, which push the fabric together.
扣板向下压下，底部的轮槽打开，将布料收拢。
The plate then slides up and locks into position in the notches below the finials, hitching up the skirt to keep it out of the mud.
随后扣板向上滑动并在饰钮下方的凹槽中锁定定位，将裙摆提起，以保持其不接触泥泞。
The ball finials are stamped 'Fyfe's patent' . This was Alexander Leslie Fyfe Ltd. of London, who patented several designs for lifters.
