 |
The three glass doorknob sets I have listed here together (DS1161, DS1162 and DS1163) are not identical but pretty darn close! They have different applications and might be just what you need for a special area in your home. These doorknobs are from around 1910 and are larger and heaver than the... click picture for more info |

This is a quite handsome set with bright brass banding on the doorknobs and plates set against the mottled dull brass background. Happily it does show its age – about 80 years old! Knobs and plates are heavy pressed steel in very good condition with no bends, breaks or heavy scratches. Note that,... click picture for more info |

Sweet and simple with no nonsense! This charming set pairs white porcelain doorknobs with plain brass rosettes. Although the doorknob shafts are bronze where the rosettes are brass, the metal colors are a good match. The doorknobs are quite a bit older than the rosettes as evidenced by blemishes... click picture for more info |

This set has the simple Art Deco styling so popular in the 1930’s. The sparkling pressed glass doorknobs do not have a single chip or scratch to the glass yet the steel shafts have almost all of the old plating worn away. The elegantly simple steel door plates still have a bronze blush which gives... click picture for more info |

It’s a shame the maker of this lock set didn’t sign their name to it! The metal art work with bunches of flowers and foliage is stunning with just a bit of geometrics to set it all off. When I received this set the thumb turn and keyhole cover were missing. Although the lock face plate, doorknob... click picture for more info |

These door sets were probably manufactured in the 1930’s when doorknobs and plates became a bit smaller in size. This hardware has a refined elegance that was popular during that era. The knobs are darker (chocolate colored) than they appear in the photos with worn brass plating here and there... click picture for more info |

These high quality doorknobs once graced an upscale home or business (perhaps a hotel?) in the early 1900’s. They are made by Yale and one side has the letters L B in raised script while the other has a plain face. All in heavy cast bronze they have a lovely old patina. Pardon the camera flash... click picture for more info |

I can see this set being equally stunning on both a white painted or dark wood finished old door! On a dark brown they give a mellow refined look but mounted on white they would be a striking contrast. The knobs are solid dark brown glazed mineral clay teamed with cast bronze Eastlake designed... click picture for more info |

This vintage doorknob set was made by Lockwood around 1914 in their dainty Essex pattern. The large exterior plate greats your guests as they enter and the matching knob and keyhole escutcheon bids them farewell! All portions of this set are made of wrought bronze with a medium caramel patina. ... click picture for more info |

A great opportunity to dress up three doors with coordinated antique hardware! I visualize them as an entry, passage and closet but the choice is up to you. You will receive 5 doorknobs with 4 matching rosettes that were made by Mallory, Wheeler in 1882; one rectangular door plate in a... click picture for more info |

A perfect compliment (perhaps closets that have been added?) to a home with rim locks and the same old white doorknobs. Doorknobs show charming age spots and plates (pressed steel) have a rusty iron look. A spindle with steel set screws is included but not pictured. I can put together additional... click picture for more info |

Reading Hardware thought this design was so beautiful (and we agree!) they obtained a patent for it on April 23, 1901 and stamped the information on the shaft of every doorknob made. This set is made of wrought bronze with a copper plating. So pretty and elegant! This set has been polished to bring... click picture for more info |

 |
This beautiful set with antique doorknobs and matching entry door plate were made by Reading Hardware in 1890 and referenced as their “Windsor” design. Lots of flowers and geometrics but the style differs quite a bit from the 1897 “Windsor”. I doubt that Reading Hardware thought about the confusion... click picture for more info |

Manufactured by Russell & Erwin in 1897, this stunning set is from their Italian Renaissance School of Design and was named “Verocchio”. The knobs feature a spiral leaf design surrounding a central primrose, a standard in Victorian gardens. The fancy leaves continue on the door plates and look... click picture for more info |

 |
Two simple sets of heavy wrought iron door plates and white porcelain antique doorknobs. The iron has been left with a reddish rust patina and then given a coat of paste wax. One plate has a keyhole and the others do not. Why not use a simple small tube latch for both and a dab of black paint under... click picture for more info |

 |
Heavy bronze construction and clean lines define this vintage door hardware. These components allow many applications to suit your home. You will receive 4 doorknobs, 3 door plates and one rosette. Use the rosette inside a closet or purchase a key hole cover separately. You could even purchase a... click picture for more info |

Made by Branford Lock Works c.1880, this intricate pattern was named “Oriental” by the manufacturer. Some refer to it as the Bamboo pattern due to the stalk of bamboo that bisects the knob pattern. Superb incising on all surfaces with a bronze band on the knob perimeter. All cast iron is the same... click picture for more info |

 |
Wonderful set of antique doorknobs and plates by Sargent & Co. c.1900 but possibly as late as 1910. An incredible patina that only age can produce. Made of wrought copper or bronze (hard to tell without cleaning them). Plates: 2-1/4” wide x 7” high Center of doorknob hole to center of round... click picture for more info |

These variegated mineral clay knobs are frequently (and incorrectly) referred to as Bennington and/or Rockingham doorknobs. The names Bennington, Rockingham and Fenton refer to pottery manufacturers who did not make doorknobs with a shank such as this. There are other differences relative to how... click picture for more info |

Sparkling glass doorknob set - probably from the 1930s. There are some bubbles inside the glass so they might be older. No scratches or chips noted on knobs. Door plates have a few scratches (see photo) but should not be very noticeable when installed. Newer replacement... click picture for more info |
