Payson's Window Sash Fastener

Payson's Window Sash Fastener

Antique decorative window sash latch made and patented by J. R. Payson. Patents Jan 1876 and June 1876. This type of sash fastener was offered in many of the major catalogues.  Cast iron with a bronze knob on the end.

The spring connected to the knob is fairly loose, so it does not offer a lot of tension, but the hook part holds it closed.

This is an antique item and may show wear due to age. This may include scratches, pitting, patina, finish loss, rust or other general wear. We attempt to include any significant damage beyond regular wear within the description. We make every effort to clean as much paint, dirt and rust off of items while still leaving as much of the original patina as possible. Photos shown are of actual item you will receive.
