Description from the seller
Art Deco Bronze Door Knob with Decorative Backplate – France, ca. 1920s
In excellent condition – No reserve
An elegant and highly decorative Art Deco bronze door knob dating from the 1920s. Featuring a beautifully fluted, pumpkin-shaped knob mounted on a striking geometric fan-shaped backplate, this is a superb example of early Art Deco architectural hardware.
The warm bronze patina and sculptural design make it ideal for restoring a period interior or as a decorative collector's piece.
Art Deco architecture embraced bold geometric forms and luxurious materials, and even functional elements such as door hardware were designed as true works of art. This striking model perfectly reflects that philosophy.
