Early 1900s Beehive Rim Lock Knobs

Unusual matching pairs of antique spun brass rim lock door knobs, stamped 'Patent' on the rear of each handle (no idea what the patent refers to), we've described them as early 1900s, they might possibly be a bit earlier. Each pair had had a light polish, they'll tarnish pretty quickly after a bit of use.

Sold in pairs.

Condition:

Pretty good condition, some of the back plates are a bit bent (they will screw flat) and a bit of damage around some of the grub screw holes. They would have been fitted with packers between the handles & the spindles (I normally use thin card). Its fiddly but worth doing to keep the handles on tight.
