Sleek Cast Brass Mid-Century Mail or Letter Slot

Although I usually opt for an aged patina on old hardware, I think this mail slot would be spectacular polished to a high sheen.  All the old lacquer finish has been removed so it would be quite easy for you to do. The back of the flap (seen from inside the house) is shiny already.

This slot is made of heavy cast brass. The flap spring is strong and in good condition.

Exterior:  2-5/8” x 8-5/8”
