Does anyone know what this is? I found it at the two houses i've been hunting which date back to the 1850's or so. It doesn't open up very far and it's about the size of a quarter. Thanks Donna

it looks like a small deorative hinge to maybe a jewelry box , old cupboard or the like .

Yeah, I agree. The design doesn't appear to be symmetrical. Maybe handmade?Originally Posted by del link=topic=7479.msg86209#msg86209 date=1318971991
