French Art Deco
Figural Merman and Mermaid Bronze Door Handles
Two Pair Available, 2 of each design
Circa 1930’s, France 
Wonderful and unique pair of figural
male and female door handles to
grace a grand entry or bold furniture piece. You could even create
lamps out of them.
2 pairs are available so you may use the 2 males and 2 females
together,
or a male and female on each pair of doors.
Excellent conversation pieces. Cast
in solid bronze with the original patina intact.
Both male and female figures have the scaled mermaid tails with
flippers.
Both are topless with their arms folded to support a shell type of
thumb rest on the tops of their heads.
Both have very stylized, flowing hair with a definite art deco wave.
Highly detailed and very whimsical.
Although unsigned, these handles are
the quality of a fine bronze statue and are a work of art in
themselves.
One short threaded post that goes
thru to attach to the door is still intact.
You may purchase these as shown, or,
our metal shop can make the
size post (thickness for your door) needed for a minor fee.
