WOW! Gorgeous, rare, antique, doorbell lever salvaged from an old Victorian home in Southeastern NH. I'm not sure which manufacturer (R&E, Sargent, Corbin, etc.) made it but I do know it was made during the 1880's. It's made of solid, heavy, thick, cast bronze, not plated steel.

Like most of the decorative hardware produced during the time period, it has an intricate, Aesthetic (Eastlake) style design. The design is enhanced by a rich, original patina (tarnish). If you prefer a clean, shiny look, you could remove the patina with "Brasso" and some #0000 steel wool.

The pin which secures the lever to the plate of Ringer#2 broke and we replaced it. The new metal pin is only visible from the back which will be hidden from view once installed.
 

The bronze itself in great condition with only tiny nicks and subtle scratches. There are no breaks, cracks, chips, or gouges. The ornate details are crisp, vivid, and have held up incredibly well for almost 140 years. The ringer is ready for another lifetime of service.
