Antique Hand Letter Clip
This striking letter clip features a detailed, cast brass hand, elegantly posed atop a rectangular wooden base. Likely dating to the 19th century, this piece served as a functional desk accessory, holding letters and papers securely. The craftsmanship is notable, with the hand exhibiting fine detailing and a rich patina, indicative of age and use. The wooden base provides a stable foundation and complements the brass beautifully.

It’s a charming piece of history that adds character to any workspace.
