15 × 12 × 1.5mm Self-Colour Pressed Brass Miniature Butt Hinges

These exceptionally compact pressed brass butt hinges are designed for dolls' houses, model making, miniatures and other small craft projects. Measuring just 15 × 12 × 1.5mm, they provide a discreet hinged connection where conventional cabinet hinges would be far too large.
