Cool
, antique, Arts and Crafts style, interior door lockset  made by, "Skillman Hardware Mfg. Co." of Trenton, NJ during the middle of the  previous century. Each set is complete with all parts needed to install and use:  2 steel knobs, 2 stamped steel escutcheons, 1 steel mortise lock, 1 steel strike  plate for the door jamb, 1 spindle with 2  setscrews to connect the knobs,  and 8 installation screws to fasten the lock and plates to the door.
Originally, all parts were brass  and copper plated, but  some of the plating wore off over the years leaving the parts with a nice,  distressed finish. The degree of plating varies from part to part.
One knob in each set is  slightly smaller than the other. Unless the knobs are side by side, this quirk  will be unnoticeable.
At the point of salvage, some parts were painted all parts were dirty and rusty  (see last photo). Much time was spent carefully cleaning all parts, trying to preserve as much of the plating  and patina (tarnish) as possible. It has an amazing, distressed look.  However, if you prefer your hardware bright and shiny, we could thoroughly clean  the parts, removing all patina for an additional /set

A
ll parts are in excellent condition with only tiny nicks and light  scratches that you would expect to find on old, used hardware. There are
no breaks, cracks, chips or gouges.
The lock was opened, inspected, and  we sprayed grease on and around all parts to facilitate their movement
.  The inside of the lock is fairly clean considering its age (see last photo).
If you want a key to operate the lock, we could modify an old skeleton key to  work with this lock for /key
