1930s Art Nouveau Kissing Couple Silverplate Door Knocker

Honestly, I’ve never seen this pattern before – I’m in love with it.  Door knocker measures 6″ high by 4″ wide.  The art nouveau girl is on the bottom, and the boy/man is on the knocker…the knocker has the shape of a hand mirror and ornamental roses/vines up the handle and around his neck.  When you knock, the two are raised and match in order to kiss each other.  Shows appropriate wear to the silverplate for its age, signed JB 2521 on the reverse.  The screw in the knocker proper should either be tightened or replaced to ensure that they hit exactly and it doesn’t slide.
