Description

A gorgeous complete working thumb-latch set for an exterior door, made and signed by Welch in an unusual maple leaf design, and dating from the 1920’s. Retaining its original darkened nickel over bronze finish, this door hardware set consists of a large exterior handle with a thumb latch and a smaller coordinating interior handle; both feature a distinctive bark design with maple leaves accenting the top and bottom. A matching thumb turn and decorative lock cylinder escutcheon continue the maple leaf motif. The larger handle measures 11-5/8″ tall, 3-5/8″ wide, and has a 2″ projection; the smaller handle measures 7-1/2″ tall by 2-3/8″ wide with a 1-1/2″ projection. The lock face measures 7-3/16″ tall by 1-1/8″ wide, the body measures 5-1/2″ tall by 3-1/2″, and has a 2-5/8″ back set.
