Looks like some kind of garter snap or something. I can read "BRIGHT' on one side what does it say opposite that,all I can make out is "HIS"? Try a pencil rubbing if you can't read it.

A maker's-mark is often a key clue for figuring out an item's ID. Please tell us what the marking on your mystery-item says. I can see the word "BRIGHT" on it but not much else.

I think I see RED.....HIS..S.?

I think it is half of an old raincoat or rainboot clasp.

I think it says ... "THIS" ... "BRIGHT" I can not make out the rest of the words.

Looks like a snap off a garter belt. But you younger folks wouldn't remember this one. Monty

Yeppers, BRIGHT made garters for women and men's socks. And, yes, Monty I do remember them. Breezie

That was my first guess too.

It also looks like it could be a buttonhole badge or medal. The part with the slots may have had a ribbon affixed. The "BRIGHT" part may have been part of what the award was for.
