Leather bound photo album with white cabochon decoration. Deeply embossed covers. It has two interesting brass latches with rings and woven ribbon. The page edges are embossed and heavily gilded. This size photo album was used for Cartes de Visites in the late 19th century. It holds 36 photos.
The album measures about 5 inches by 4 inches by 2 1/2 inches thick.
Condition is good for its age. The binding has come loose and a few pages have tears. Many pages have penciled names. The latches are in excellent shape. There is a little wear to the outside leather cover. Very sturdy.
