Plate Handle 1640

Description

A Beautifully ornate design brass plate handle. Stamped brass rectangular backplate with solid forged brass grips. This is often used as a 'cover-all' in restoration and repairs as the size and shape of the plate lends itself to masking over past botches and alterations. Victorian in style with Art Deco features this is a wonderful handle. Traditionally made for original patterns and tooling right here in England.

A note regarding the antique brass finish – These products are created in a traditional foundry using solid forged or cast brass, which is then treated with a solution to naturally oxidize the metal. This dulls the brass finish to give the item an authentic appearance. Note that by nature of the way in which this is achieved, the finish may differ slightly from batch to batch, and may be darker than the image shown. If this is the case, and you would prefer the finish to be a lighter-coloured brass, they can be polished up with a metal cleaner such as ‘Brasso’. This is possible because the finish is left un-lacquered for authenticity
