Over 100 years old. We have a small quantity of the original, heavy brass door knobs that were used in New York City schools over a century ago. These are NOT reproductions.
We found them many years ago in the dusty basement of a salvage yard in Manhattan. We can have them professionally polished and sealed against tarnish for an additional charge.
It's fascinating to think of such artistic care being taken with such a utilitarian item. These gorgeous knobs were very likely one the most beautiful things in the daily lives of the immigrant children of New York.
These are little works of art, and make great conversation pieces... we even have a few old shafts available, so you can possibly make them functional door knobs again!
Size 2.5" x 1.5". Original antique door knobs like this are extremely rare. We only have a small quantity.
