Overview
Commonly called "campaign hardware", this line of gorgeous brass hardware serves both to beautify and to protect your furniture and surrounding items. The term "campaign hardware" derives from the 18th and 19th centuries, when English officers demanded high-quality, portable furniture while on military marches. The recessed hardware and brass corners allowed furniture to nestle together in a compact stack, and prevented scratches while stowed in the back of a bumpy horse-drawn wagon. Once unpacked and in the tent, however, the furniture served as a beautiful reminder of home.

how many come in a package?
What size are the screws?
how thick is the metal?
BEST ANSWER: 1/16" thick. I was very pleased with this item. Looks good mounted flush to surface or on the surface. The screws are a bit weak however. You must drill hole first then still be very careful with screwing in. You may even want to buy extras. Good luck.

I have an old dresser with corner and leg protectors..can they be removed without destroying the dresser?
BEST ANSWER: I would say it depends on a couple of things. First - if this is an antique it might hurt the value to replace brass etc. Second - if they are held on with screws, can you remove them. If not, do the holes in the new corners line up with the old ones? If they are different, then it doesn't much matter if the old screws come out. I used mine on an old wood tackle box - because the old ones had fallen off. Purely utilitarian.

Product is OK but only because no other options available.
Metal for quite thin but the real problem is that the mounting screws are located such that the ones nearest the corners intersect and interfere with each other.

Perfect fit and appearance
I affixed these brass corners over damaged wooden corners on two coffee tables. The tables now look terrific, the damage is hidden, and the antique brass is a perfect style match - and the job was a snap.

Case for flintlock pistols I built.
The brass corners were what I needed for my reproduction 18th century case for my colonial flintlock pistols, also used stop hinges & full mortise chest lock.
