About the Item
This exquisite cast bronze sprung hinged letter/document clip from France circa 1880 is a stunning example of functional artistry. Crafted in the form of a crane's head, it embodies the grace and elegance of the avian inspiration. The clip's design not only serves a practical purpose but also adds a touch of whimsy and sophistication to any setting.
The sprung hinge allows for easy opening and closing, providing a secure grip for holding letters or documents. Its size and shape make it perfect for storing letters, keeping them organized and easily accessible. Additionally, the clip features a hook on the back, allowing it to be hung on the wall, doubling as a decorative element when not in use.
Made from durable bronze, this clip is not only a functional tool but also a timeless piece of art that reflects the craftsmanship and style of 19th-century France.
