Old Antique Drawer Lock 1 Working Key 2 Lever Brass Steel 1880's V.R Victorian

Hi there, welcome to this listing,

Here I have for sale a really nice vintage early Victorian era brass and steel lever drawer lock and 1 working NON ORIGINAL key which works the lock perfectly with a nice action.

This original antique early Victorian drawer lock is in very nice condition for it's age with it's gleaming polished brass work which looks great !, however the steelwork does have some marks and minor rust which is not seen when the lock is fitted to a drawer. 

Please see all 20 photos before you decide to buy this great solid brass vintage original early Victorian period drawer lock.

This lock is a traditional English drawer lock (derived from the earlier Georgian era), but it can also be used as a Bureau lock too (on some Bureaus) if one desires !

This lock measures 65 mm wide by 50.5 mm high and the top face area (where the lock bolt comes out) measures 65 mm long by 12.8 mm wide. 

The distance from from top face edge of this lock to the center of the keyhole pin is 24 mm.

The lock case cover measures approx 42 mm wide by 44 mm high by 8.2 mm deep. (this is the part that gets recessed in to the wood and hidden) (please note that this lock also has a small tongue which measures 6mm x 10mm x 2mm at the base of the lock case so a small recess will need to be cut to accommodate this - please see pic 04 for more info )

The total length of the key is approx 61 mm.

This lock is from my personal vintage lock collection and is a very nice well made old reasonably secure draw lock which is in good/fair USED condition for its vintage age with its gleaming polished brass work, and it is in perfect working order with one working NON ORIGINAL key.

This lock is not in bad shape for its vintage age of approx 180 years old ! and maybe an ideal replacement for that old antique desk that you have where a similar lock may be missing or not working.  

Please see all 20 photos and study them very carefully as they form a big part of the description and show details including any imperfections that this lock has, being an old original lock that is now many years old. 

I have described this item to the best of my knowledge and this lock is in perfect working order and in fantastic used condition.
