Does anyone know more about the design of the silver clasp that featured in the film?
Lota & Elizabeth named the design/designer/artist, but I couldn't find it...

update ...
I now think it is a piece by Alexander Calder - he gave a similar one to his wife Louisa for her 53rd birthday, Feb 19th 1958.

a design by Alex. Calder apparently.
Dictionary.com says: US sculptor, who originated mobiles and stabiles (moving or static abstract sculptures, generally suspended from wire). He lived from 1898-1976

They had a Calder mobile in the house too.
