Antique "Alby" Design Knob and Plate Set
This is an Antique Item
This is an antique stamped steel knob and plate set in the Art Nouveau style with the "Alby" pattern likely made by Sargent, circa 1900 . This unique set has a larger plate on one side and a smaller plate on the other, typical of an entry door. There is some pitting and oxidation on the larger knob and plate and some loss of brass finish on the smaller side. Only one set available.

The Art Nouveau movement arose out of a critical response to the industrialization of cities and the authoritarian dominance of neo-classical designs that pervaded the Victorian world view.
