A clip member for a stator vane of a stator assembly of a rotary machine which has an installed condition in the rotary machine, the clip member (62) having:
a base; and
a retention member (84);
wherein the retention member extends from the base and is spaced from the base leaving a gap there between which is adapted to receive the stator vane (28) and which adapts the clip member (62) to engage the stator vane (28) with the retention member (84) and the base; and
wherein the retention member (84) is a spring member such that the retention member (84) presses the base against the stator vane (28) in the installed condition.
