It is a real estate jewelry suitable for royalty and always a treasure you can both use and appreciate, as will anyone who visits your home. Once you own them you will want to take them with you if you should ever choose to move onto to another home. As an investment they have doubled to quadrupled in value in the last five years.

When mixed throughout the house, they offer a visitor a museum exhibition hung on your doors which will lead to the curious checking every door in your home to appreciate the uniqueness of collection. Surprisingly the quality antique knobs are not much more expensive than the quality reproductions in most cases and generally will last longer then the new ones as well.

We stock thousands of doorknobs with over 1,000 patterns of antique doorknobs on display and for sale.
