  • All returns accepted: ReturnsNotAccepted
  • Material: Brass
  • Decade: Unknown
  • Features: Salvage
  • Original/Reproduction: Vintage Original
  • Condition: There are a few spots of verdigris on the piece, in addition to some tarnish spotting from age. The brass may have been cleaned many years ago, but certainly not while in my posession. Though there is an area that appears to show a crack, it is actually a casting blemish instead. There are no cracked or broken areas that I've found and the item item lies flat with no bends. There are a couple of small areas on the edge that look like casting burrs may have been filed by the manufacturer, just to point out for accuracy. Please examine the photos to determine the condition of the item for yourself.

    Description

    Okay, let me start off by saying that I have no idea of just how old this item is.  Heck, it could have adorned the dressing room door of some turn of the century French actress for all I know.  However, I do know that it is 7 1/8" long x 3 1/8" tall.  I also know that it's brass and about 1/16" thick, weighing about 5 ounces, according to my postal scale (Yeah, sold by the same people who said your package would arrive a week before it actually did).  From my little knowledge of style, it appears to be Art Noveu by design, but unfortunately, there is neither a date or manufacturers mark to research.  Based on the position of the holes, either side was to be hung just as you see it in my photos.  Since I can't seem to remember where or how I picked up this little brass work of art, you can be assured that I won't be able to help the lucky owner find another one....sorry.  So this is it....some creative soul like you is going to use it to work their magic with, after they've bought it, of course.
