COMPLETE SPECIFICATION:
A. Combined Stud and Scarf Fastener.
I WILLOUGHBY EDWARD BRYAN of Sunnycote, Lyndhurst in the County
of Hants, Gentleman, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what
manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement:-
My invention consists in providing a stud, employed for securing a collar, or
shirt front, or other article of dress, with means or a device for holding and
securing a necktie, or scarf which device may consist of a bar attached to the stud
by solder or otherwise and to this bar is hinged another bar which can be opened
out to receive the necktie, or scarf, and be afterwards closed so as to engage the
said necktie, or scarf, between the two bars, a spring snap, or other fastening being
provided, to retain the bar in its closed position, and so retain the necktie or
Scarf between the two bars; or a chain or ring or elastic band, may be used in
place of the hinged bar; or, for simple forms, the stud may have an elastic loop
passed through it, or a brooch-pin, or safety-pin may be secured to the top of the
stud.
And in order that my said invention may be fully undersood I shall now proceed
more particularly to describe what I consider the best form of the same and for
that purpose shall refer to the annexed drawings the same letters of reference
indicating corresponding parts in both figures.
Figure 1 represents a combined stud and scarf fastener constructed according to
my invention the dotted lines shewing the necktie or scarf fastener in its open
position to receive, or remove, the necktic or scarf and
Figure 2 is a perspective view shewing the combined stud and scarf fastener (in
the open position) as applied to a shirt collar and necktie.
To the stem a of the stud is secured a bar b to one end of which is hinged as
shewn, at c, another bar d, of a bowed form so as to leave when in its closed
position, a space e to contain thickness of material there may be in the scarf, or
necktie.
The stem a may be formed in one with, or be soldered to, the back f, of the
stud, as shewn in Figure 1, or it may be provided with a screw thread for screwing
into a hollow screwed stem on the back, as shewn in Figure 2, or be otherwise
[Price 8d1

page_text: attached so as to facilitate the insertion and removal of the stud. To secure the
scarf the bar d is opened out from the bar into the position shown by dotted lines
in Figure 1 and passed through a loop in the scarf or necktie as shewn in Figure 2
or the scarf or tie may be passed through between the bar and shirt or otherwise
engaged with the bar. The bar d is then closed and retained in its closed position
by a projection on the end of the said bar d springing into a notch in the end
of the bar or any other convenient means for retaining the bar d in its closed
position may be employed.
The device may be used in any other position than that shewn for instance as a
stud for the lower button holes of a shirt and to hold the lower end of a scarf and
then one of the bars or both of them may be provided with points to hold the scarf
securely.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is-
1. A. combined stud and scarf fastener constructed substantially as hereinbefore
described.
2. A. combined stud and scarf fastener consisting of the stem a and back f, a bar
such as, secured to the stem, and a bar such as d hinged to the bar and means
for retaining the bar d in its closed position substantially as hereinbefore
described.
