Circular Bronze Push-Pull Door Handle, Mid-20th Century, France

Circular push-pull door handle in bronze (or brass), mid-20th century, France.

A very simple elegant handle, made up of two separate pieces - each side with a slightly concave dish and wide stem. The components are in fair vintage condition with signs of wear, as one might expect from age and use - including scratches and marks - and a deep brown patina, which shows more golden in direct light.

The handle is set up to use either side of a single glass door, however you could consult your fitter to enable the two pieces to work on thicker doors, or alongside one another on double doors if you wish (see final image for example of fittings). One side is fitted with a bolt (2.5cm), which we have not tried to remove.

Approximate dimensions for one side of the handle:
Diameter 12.7cm
Projection from face of door to front rim of one piece 5.5cm.

Approximate weight: 1.9 kg total
