Looking for Vintage Door Handle

In summary, to determine the size of a vintage door handle, measure the distance between the center of the handle's screw holes. Vintage door handles can be used on modern doors as long as they are compatible with the door's thickness and have the correct latch mechanism. They are typically made of materials such as brass, bronze, iron, and ceramic. To clean and maintain a vintage door handle, use a soft cloth and mild soap and water, and avoid harsh chemicals. Replacement parts for vintage door handles can be found from the manufacturer or antique hardware stores.

Does anyone have one of these from the past? I have someone that is looking for one because they really like the handle on it.
 
I believe I do have one new in package.

If you do, let me know cost. I met the lady at an event & she is from out of state so I may take me awhile to get with her to find out what she wants to do. Thanks.
 
I do also if Beth doesn't have one.....brand new in package.

Thank you. I will give Beth a few days to check & get back w/me.
 
I do have one, actually two, new in package. I will send you an email as soon as I get the shipping price which should be in about 2 minutes.
 
Is this the old one with the long handle? I just did a show with a host who broke hers and would love to have a replacement. If that's the one you guys are talking about and there's an extra floating around, I'd be interested in taking it off your hands.
