Each measures about 2 inches across and 2 inches long. The glass pieces have the same general 12 point form, but the metal shanks have noticeably different finishes. One is brighter and shinier while the other has a darker, flatter aged surface. Because of that difference, these are sold together but are not confirmed as an original matched pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two clear glass door knobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/myreadingvintage.com\/collections\/vintage-glass-collection\" title=\"Faceted pressed glass doorknobs\"\u003eFaceted pressed glass doorknobs\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 1920s to 1940s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clear pressed glass with metal shanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clear glass with silver tone and darkened metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker and Mark:\u003c\/strong\u003e No visible maker's mark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern or Model:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 point faceted design, specific pattern not confirmed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early twentieth century architectural hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Each knob approximately 2 inches round and 2 inches long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep faceting creates a starburst appearance when viewed through the face of the glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition Grade: Very Good\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePositives\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe clear glass remains bright and reflective with strong molded detail.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo chips or cracks were found in either glass knob.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoth metal shanks remain attached to their glass knobs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe threaded openings and hardware areas are visible and appear intact.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIssues \/ Wear\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe two metal shanks have different finishes.

Their molded surfaces catch light differently from plain glass hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 12 point shape gives these knobs a strong geometric look. It works especially well when restoring period doors where modern hardware would feel out of place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two different metal finishes are worth noticing before purchase. Buyers seeking a perfectly matched restoration pair may prefer to refinish the metal or use the knobs separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glass itself is the strong point here. Both pieces retain crisp faceting without the chips and cracks that can make old glass hardware disappointing to use or display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShipping + Trust (Reading Vintage standards)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e∙\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/myreadingvintage.com\/pages\/shipping-policy\" title=\"reading Vintage shipping policy\"\u003ePhoto-verified condition\u003c\/a\u003e, no surprises\u003cbr\u003e∙Packed with our protective packaging standard\u003cbr\u003e∙Ships in 1 business day\u003cbr\u003e∙Free Shipping on $35+ (U.S. only)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eDisclaimer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll items are vintage and may show signs of age, wear, or use consistent with their history.
