Historical Context
Around 1900–1920, Jugendstil (Art Nouveau) influenced even functional architectural elements such as door hardware. Organic lines, elegant curves, and integrated thumb latches were hallmarks of high-quality shopfront and townhouse fittings of the period. 

Such complete original sets have become increasingly scarce due to renovations and demolitions, making authentic salvaged examples highly collectible today.
