Description
I think this is an antique cast iron curtain / drapery tie back in the form of a morning glory bouquet, or some similar flower. This is a single tie back NOT a pair. Long back post with a shortish screw- so this would hold back a fair amount of fabric. Marked on back PAT APLD FOR and a triangle mark with some letter and maybe number inside. Not sure of the maker, possibly Hubley but please use your own knowledge concerning maker. Great farmhouse / cottage accent piece.
Great used antique condition, age appropriate paint chipping. No design breakage. Screw tip good (pic actually shows the backside of point - sorry. I'm not sure if there is some over painting or infill painting - it's hard to say with these old cast iron pieces sometimes. Have a look, the lighter green on the leaves is what I wondered about - not excessively though. It reads well and would look pretty in use. See item description & view pics.Measures approx. 3-5/8" across, post back approx. 3-1/8 " long including screw end which is 3/4".
Selling as is, as shown and described as always.
