- Antique late 1800s brass lock with key. Lock works very nicely, VERY secure when locked.
- I believe the lock to be made of brass as it has the patina and dull yellow/gold look of brass, please view pictures to see. "Pat 1888" pressed on bottom of lock. No indication of maker on key or lock, but very primitive look to key and lock itself. The patent looks to be from the year 1888 I would assume the lock to be from around that era.
- Lock is in great working order and looks great with approprite aging, key has great "fisbone" look and may be clssified as a "skeleton" key, please view detailed pictures to see this.
- All in all this is a lock that certainly has age, any additional information would be great. I tried to get every angle of the lock so anybody with any knowledge should be able to tell more of a story on the lock.
