Home All 1860s Bronze Victorian Hinges
A pair of complete hinges with ornate, abstracted floral patterns on the faces. They have cone-shaped, decorate finials, and five screw holes in each face. There is significant patina on each hinge piece, and a small amount of verdigris, but the details are very well-preserved.
The inner faces of the same hinges. Near the pivot of the hinge, there is a thin design that is similar to the floral design on the outer faces of the hinges. The rest of the inner face is smooth, with patent stamps on each plate. There is more verdigris here, as well as the same amount of patina, and some slight scratches.
A close-up of one patent stamp, reading "PATENT. NO 2. 1869." There is also a more faded stamp reading 5 x 5

These absolutely beautiful hinges are over 150 years old, and are in truly stunning shape for their age! The Victorians really knew what they were doing when it came to making everyday objects beautiful, and these are no exception, with ornate details decorating even the inner faces of each leaf. The abstracted floral designs take strong inspiration from the popular Eastlake movement of the time, which has remained popular for well over a century now. So do like the Victorians do, and bring some extra beauty into your home today!

Condition: Great antique condition. Significant patina, commensurate with age, as well as some small patches of verdigris, but no significant structural damage to the metal.
