Rare Antique Yale & Towne Door Hardware Set - Ornate Oporto Pattern Escutcheon & Matching Olympian Cast Knobs, Circa 1905
Striking, genuine 3-piece antique door hardware set manufactured by the renowned Yale & Towne company around the turn of the 20th century. While the pieces originate from two distinct high-end catalog styles, their deep Renaissance-Revival details coordinate beautifully for a grand entryway statement. Included: - (1) Large Yale & Towne "Oporto" Pattern Entry Backplate (Pattern/Model #1861 stamped on reverse). French Renaissance detailing with heavy relief urn and cherub motifs at the crest and foot. - (2) Matching Yale & Towne "Olympian" Pattern Cast Doorknobs (Circa 1905). Concentric target-ring center wrapped in stylized floral wreaths. + (4) Carefully matched vintage slotted wood screws chosen to fit the plate and complement its historic patina. Condition & Patina Notes: This set is offered in its authentic, uncleaned "as-found" architectural salvage condition. Please note that the two doorknobs exhibit two entirely distinct wear patterns from decades of use on opposite sides of a door. One knob retains smooth high points with clear golden-bronze undertones shining through, while the other features heavy natural surface oxidation, deeper dark pitting, and historic grime that accentuates its age. The backplate shows deep, even aging with beautifully crisp casting lines. No cracks or structural breaks. Shipping: Ships carefully packed using 100% reused post-consumer packaging materials to ensure safe transit while minimizing environmental impact. Ground transit only.
