Decorative shelf brackets are one of the fine hardware categories that has been lost to time and Modernism - and no one did more interesting ones than the Victorians of the 1890s. Intricately detailed and finely cast in a wide range of sizes and patterns, examples like this pair are prized today in a world where most shelf brackets are mundane and banal at best. Historical Style: Victorian Condition Notes: Nicely preserved black baked-on enamel finish.
