In middle-class homes bric-à-brac was used as ornament on mantelpieces, cluttered tables, and shelves, or was displayed in curio cabinets: sometimes these cabinets have glass doors to display the items within while protecting them from dust. “Bric-à-brac” nowadays refers to a selection of items of modest value, often sold in street markets.”
