Measures about 3-3/8 x 3-3/8 x 1/2 inches. Late 19th century brass book corner featuring an elongated openwork design with repeating scroll and foliate elements. The pierced pattern and flowing curves reflect Victorian decorative metalwork typical of circa 1885 bindings and album fittings.
Originally used as a protective and decorative corner on large books or photo albums, this example was carefully removed from an antique album of the same period. Its lighter, more linear design offers strong visual appeal for collectors of antique book hardware, restoration work, or display of period metal ornament.
