Art Deco Style Brass Drawer Pull
This item is an Art Deco style brass drawer pull, attached to what appears to be a light-colored wooden drawer or furniture panel. The pull features a distinct geometric design, characteristic of the Art Deco period, likely dating from the 1920s to 1940s. It consists of a central, elongated 'U' shaped handle, which is slightly flattened and rectangular in cross-section, flaring subtly at its connection points to the mounting plates. The handle exhibits a visible, uneven green patina, a clear indication of oxidation on brass or bronze over time, suggesting age and a lack of recent polishing. There are also some darker spots and areas where the metallic sheen of the brass is still visible, particularly on the sharper edges of the handle and mounting plates. The handle is affixed to two rectangular-shaped mounting plates, each featuring a slightly trapezoidal or stepped-back profile, contributing to the geometric aesthetic. These plates are attached to the wood with what appear to be individual screws or posts, each topped with a small, circular boss or cap. The brass components are generally dark bronze in color with green oxidation. The wood surface is a warm, light brown or honey tone, with visible wood grain, and appears well-maintained with a smooth finish, showing minimal signs of wear beyond some minor surface inconsistencies, though these could also be part of the natural wood grain. The craftsmanship appears sturdy and functional, typical of furniture hardware from that era. There are no discernible maker’s marks or signatures visible in the provided image.
