$7.50
There are no size tags in this dress but the measurements are 12.5 from underarm to underarm and 15 ½” long.

Vintage Crystal Door Knob Set for repurposing

Sun, 04 Oct 2009 13:54:43 -0400

$12.00
The crystal knobs on this set are clean and clear and in great condition. I do not find any chips or cracks. As you can see in the pictures, one of the screws is loose and cracked around it. It does screw off the brass connector, however the rod is twisted and would need replaced.

Please let me know if you would like to have some more pictures and I will send them to you. The crystal part is about 2" across on top and about 1 1/4" deep.

These would be great for repurposing or could possibly be used as door knobs if you could get replacement parts.
