REAL DEAL HAND FORGED BRASS MOUNTS. FOUND IN A DEFUNKT ANTIQUE MALL IN NORTH TEXAS. I AM UNSURE ON THE YEAR OR THE ORIGINAL INTENTION OF THESE MOUNTS. THEY STILL HAVE REMNANTS OF RUST FROM WHATEVER OLD PIECE THEY WERE HOLDING FOR MANY YEARS BEFORE ENDING UP IN THE STORE. THEY ARE SUPER COOL! THE TIP HAVE A MARITIME LOOK BUT WHO KNOWS??? THE OPEN SCREW MOUNTS DATE THEM WAY BACK, POSSIBLY 1800s, BUT I AM NOT AN EXPERT. IF YOU HAVE AN OLD PIECE TO MOUNT AND YOU WANT THAT PERFECT TOUCH TO DISPLAY THEM, THESE ARE FOR YOU. NOT CHEAP, BUT YOU WILL HAVE THE ONLY ONES! YOUR FRIENDS WILL BE JEALOUS :) AS PICTURED, SET OF TWO.
