A rare and whimsical Victorian-era brass hand clip, beautifully crafted in the form of a lady’s right hand with detailed cuff, ring, and delicately formed fingers.
This charming antique served as a letter holder, paperweight, or wall-mounted note clip, reflecting the decorative elegance and functionality so loved during the 19th century.
Made of solid cast brass with a strong spring mechanism, the clip is not only visually striking but also highly functional—capable of securely holding anything from a single sheet to a stack of papers.
