Pair of Nickel Silver Three Paneled Double Doors

About the Item

Pair of nickel-silver double entrance doors with three raised square panels, hinges and lock. Similar to main entrance doors of Tiffany & Co. but origins unknown. Sheet metal is very heavy gauge. Inner core appears to be hardwood. Bring them back to their original intended use or repurpose cladding to make a bar. Each door weighs over 200 pounds. Missing the moulding trim surrounding upper left square panel on one side. From Metals in America's Historic Buildings by Margot Gayle Gayle et al. 1992, "Nickel Silver sometimes has been called "white brass" but probably should be termed "nicke] brass" because it generally contains 75% copper, 20% nickel, and 5% zinc. Different percentages result in a range of colors and improved properties for specific fabrication methods such as casting or extrusion. Shades of nickel silver can range from silvery-white to pale yellow but can also be produced with a slight blue, green, or pink tone to harmonize with other building materials or to contrast with other metals."
