Angularity -- N. angularity, angularness†; aduncity†; angle, cusp, bend; fold &c.

From Roget's Thesaurus of English Words and Phrases by Roget, Peter Mark

Angularity it often still possessed, but generally speaking its elegance of form and richness of upholstering lent it an attraction which not long before had been entirely lacking.

From Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 11, Slice 3 "Frost" to "Fyzabad" by Various
