Set of 9 Art Nouveau Hand Beaten Bronze Door Handles with Plates

About the Item

Presenting a gorgeous and unique set of 9 Art Nouveau hand beaten bronze door handles with plates. Amazingly complete set! Probably made in the US circa 1910 and most definitely influenced by the English New Lyn School of Arts and Crafts Era hand-beaten copper pieces. These are without doubt Art Nouveau in style and from the period. They were salvaged from a Mansion in Dallas that was built in 1929. We are of the opinion that these were ‘custom made’ pieces. They are unmarked and unsigned and they appear to be made of bronze with a brass and copper mix. The Set consists of: 6 double sided classic door handles/knobs with central lock pin – suitable for door of a minimum of 1.5 inches thick but can accommodate thicker door. Each of these 6 also come with their original back plates (x12) and keyhole covers (x12) for either side of the door. 2 handles/knobs with central lock pin but with small knob on backside- suitable for door of a minimum of 1.5 inches thick but can accommodate thicker door. This pair also has their original (front) back plates and a Yale back plate on the rear. 1 double sided turning door handles/knobs with turning central lock pin – suitable for door of a minimum of 1.5 inches thick but can accommodate thicker door. This also comes with it’s original back plates (x2). 1 Spare Keyhole cover, 2 spare back plates, 1 Spare plain Bronze Turning Knob with pin and 2 spare Hand-beaten Bronze Turning Knobs with pins. TOTAL OF 63 PIECES! These were originally used in the Mansion we rescued them from, with Yale Mortice Locks (a number of which we have listed separately in this category). The fact that they are hand beaten bronze, is highly unusual in itself as most of these types of pieces were copper. Also, we rescued these from the now demolished Mansion along with the UNIQUE hand beaten Bronze Door Straps and hardware (posted separately) which likewise have no markings and are unlike ANYTHING we have seen before. The original bronze door hinges (posted separately) are marked as being made by “McKinney”, so it is plausible that McKinney could have made all the hardware, but we do not think so, as McKinney only appear to have sold high-end hinges. YOU WILL NOT FIND ANOTHER SET LIKE THIS … TRULY UNIQUE! Provenance: From a Wealthy Dallas Mansion built in 1929. Condition: Very good original condition. Some very minor blemishes. Dimensions: The 6 standard handles are 6 in long, 2.5 in wide and 2.25 in deep. The Pair of handles with the small knob to the rear are 5 in long, 2.5 in wide and 2.25 in deep. The double sided turning handle is 7 in long, 2.5 in wide and 2.25 in deep. The keyhole covers are 2 in x 1.75 in.
