3½" (89Mm) "embassy oval" stamped brass oval plate handle, made from original press tools at the armac brassworks. Known as the embassy oval, this is a replica handle made from the original tooling used to provide desk drawer handles for american embassies around the world back in the 1950's. These are a true replica of late 18th century designs still manufactured in their original method. The process for stamping cold metal shapes for furniture decoration was patented in birmingham in 1779. These type of handles are very popular with restorers and repairers as the shape of plate is often referred to as a 'cover-all' in that it easily masks earlier fitting marks and drillings. |
