Door Knobs, Antique discount Dummy Door Knobs, Octagonal Amethyst Sun Glass Knob on Original Brass Rosettes, Set of 2 Each with Screws, ca 1915

This is a set of 2 each beautiful antique discount light purple amethyst octagonal sun glass door knobs with brass shanks on their original antique wrought brass rosettes. These gorgeous and sparkly 2-3/8" flat-faced door knobs are mated to their 2" brass three screwhole rosettes. The standoff is 2-3/8" and price is for the set of 2 each of these awesome pieces of sparkly and old American door hardware.

This set is Dummy Knob Only. A dummy knob is for pulling, not for turning. A dummy knob acts as a way to open/close a door, pull/push or side to side. Ideal applications are on man doors, cabinet doors, barn doors or french doors...any door that has an alternate method of latching, but needs a cool piece of original antique hand hardware to pull it open and closed with. Other applications include use as wall towel hooks or just wall art! My antique dummy door knobs are all actual antique, period specific door knobs that have been mated to a door plate or rosette (the round door plates). Mounting to the surface is via screws through the door plate screw holes.

SHIPPING NOTE: If you purchase multiple listings on one order we will refund any shipping cost saved by single-boxing your product.

WITH SCREWS. Mounting to the wood surface is via screws through the door plate screw holes. This set is PROVIDED with a set of high-quality 1" solid bronze #6 slotted wood screws. The screws will be raw bronze unless aesthetically required, then these screw heads will have a satin black finish to help them to blend into the darker door plate finish.

Screw Design: We only use SLOTTED head design screws because they are historically accurate. Never use a Philips or other screw head types when installing historic antique hardware.

Screw Material: We use bronze because it is harder than brass and will not color like iron. Bronze screws are what was used on all of the best historic hardware installations.

Screw Length: We supply 1" screws because this is the average size that people request. Remember that the depth into the wood is less than 1" because the door plate thickness must be accounted for. If you think you need longer or shorter screws please make a note when you place your order. Thickness of the plate, the door, the type and age of the wood, and the actual application all come into consideration when specifying your screw length. The longer the screw, the more bite the assembly will have in the wood.
