This is a set of ornate antique drop pull drawer handles, dating to the late 19th century (c. 1875–1895). Designed in the Eastlake / Aesthetic Movement style, each pull features a beautifully cast geometric backplate with a decorative bail handle that swings freely.
These pulls would have originally adorned the drawers of a Victorian dresser, sideboard, or writing desk, adding both beauty and function. In an era when furniture was made to last generations, hardware like this was cast in solid brass or iron, with intricate designs that echoed the decorative arts of the day.
