About the Item

19th Century French Silver-Plated Book Stand. This intricately engraved book stand showcases the craftsmanship of 19th-century French metalwork, featuring ornate floral and scroll motifs alongside Latin inscriptions—“Miseremini mei saltem vos amici mei”—which translates to “Have pity on me, at least you my friends.” The hinged surface allows books to rest open at an angle, ideal for reading or display. Resting on four ball feet, the piece balances elegance and utility, making it both decorative and functional. Its silver-plated finish exhibits a time-worn patina that enhances its historical charm, making it an exceptional addition to a study, library, or collector’s display of fine antique objects.
