Sargent “Standing Lion/ Antwerp” Doorknob

Description

Sargent “Standing Lion/ Antwerp” Doorknob

Single doorknob made by Sargent in “Standing Lion/ Antwerp” design. Cir. 1910. Heavy, cast bronze. The knob is oval shaped and measures 2 1/2″h x 1 3/4″w. The design is a bit worn. Attachment hole on neck is worn and an additional hole was added at some point. This allows for double shaft attachment, which holds quite nicely.

This is an antique item and may show wear due to age. This may include scratches, pitting, patina, finish loss, rust or other general wear. We attempt to include any significant damage beyond regular wear within the description. We make every effort to clean as much paint, dirt and rust off of items while still leaving as much of the original patina as possible. Photos shown are of actual item you will receive.

This item may be shippable.
