Get quoteThe Moon Shape Black Turn Button Clip (SKU: U21) is the dark-finish counterpart to the U20 silver crescent clip. With a 34 mm span and a tighter 12 mm inner chord, it suits smaller round and oval dark-toned frames while providing the same dual-hole locking reliability as the U20.
Dark ebony, walnut, and black-lacquered round frames are increasingly popular in contemporary art display. The U21 Moon Shape Black Turn Button Clip provides a visually consistent hardware solution that matches these dark frame aesthetics while its crescent geometry conforms to curved rabbets perfectly.
Total length (span): 34 mm. Span width: 22 mm. Tail width: 2.5 mm. Hole diameter: 2.5 mm × 2. Thickness: 0.4 mm. Inner chord: 12 mm.
Same as U20. Position crescent inner edge against backing, fasten both holes, rotate 45° to lock. Use 6–8 clips per round frame.
For silver crescent see U20 Moon Shape Silver Turn Button Clip. For round disc see U22 Round Disc Metal Turn Button Clip.
0.4 mm cold-rolled steel, matte black electrophoretic coating.
