Pair of Antique/Vintage Brass Scalloped Drawer Pulls

This item consists of a pair of identical antique or vintage brass drawer pulls or bail handles. Each pull features a decorative backplate crafted from a single piece of brass, characterized by a scalloped or lobed edge resembling a stylized flower or cloud shape. The backplate has a central hole, presumably for a screw or fastener to attach it to furniture, with a visible slight indentation or wear around it. The overall color is a dull, aged brass with significant patination, indicating natural oxidation over time. There are areas of darker brown and some greenish verdigris, particularly noticeable in the recessed areas and along the edges, suggesting exposure to moisture or environmental factors. The surface exhibits various specks, minor corrosion points, and inconsistencies in the patina, contributing to an aged appearance. The bail handle itself is a simple, U-shaped piece of solid brass, attached to the backplate via two swivel points. These attachment points are spherical or half-spherical in shape, allowing the handle to swing freely. The handles also show similar patination and surface irregularities as the backplates. No specific manufacturer's marks, signatures, or stamps are visible in the provided images. The design suggests a style commonly found in East Asian furniture, particularly chests or cabinets, or possibly furniture inspired by such designs. The quality of craftsmanship appears utilitarian but robust, designed for durability rather than intricate artistic detail. Given the heavy patination and style, these items likely date from the late 19th to mid-20th century.
