Single doorknob by Lockwood in "Arcadia" design. Cir. 1887-1914. Cast bronze. Greek inspired design with an egg and dart border around a concave center. Another dash and line border follows on the outer edge. The knob measures 2 1/4" in diameter. It has a fairly even patina. There are remnants of a small tag on the neck, perhaps from a museum or collection label. There is one small ding on the edge of the doorknob.

The doorknob fits snuggly on a standard sized non-threaded square shaft.
