Title: One last thing for awhile, draw hardware and a wreath from the 30's
Post by: Spencer541 on January 08, 2011, 05:31:54 PM

These pieces of drawer hardware seem to be made of glass with brass screws and the wreath was labeled 1930.  Any value here?

I looked at a lot of antique drawer pulls and bin pulls when I was restoring my Hoosier. I've never seen one like yours. In general, they range from a few dollars up to about $35 each for very ornate ones, or ones with animals on them. Usually, people like to buy them in sets, so that they can do a whole cabinet. But you never know, there could be someone looking to replace a missing one. Do you have a set or just one? Its a nice one!

Your wreath is what is called a Silk Chenille Wreath approx  1930- 1940 I would guess about $12.00. some were produced by Paramount.

That is great that you have a set of six. If you run a search for "bin pulls" on Ebay in the antiques section, it will give you a pretty good idea about what they are selling for. There are a lot of repros made, but the real thing like yours can do quite nicely. Here's what's up at Ebay today. You do have to check each auction though because some of these are reproductions, some are original.
