Leather Photo Album with Brass Clasps
A richly detailed Victorian photo album, bound in deeply embossed leather with decorative gilt accents, inset porcelain studs, and ornate brass clasps. The album opens to gilt-edged pages fitted with windows for cartes-de-visite and cabinet card portraits, many still with decorative printed surrounds. A handsome example of 19th-century craftsmanship, it would have once housed treasured family photographs and remains a striking decorative object today.
