Decorative Furniture Hardware and ??

[Showtime2385]

Came across all of these drawer pulls in about a 3 foot area today. Have a nice decorative design.

Also I think this may have been the base to a small oil lamp? Not sure?? Any ideas or confirmation?

Also if anyone has an idea of the age of the furniture hardware?

These look Georgian or Federal era to me, and I really think they're fantastic finds. Make a great display case. I mean, I never find the whole thing--just the little brass screws or the U-shaped handle.

I usually only find one piece of old furniture, most often a pull, or keyhole.

Here is a drawer keyhole I found today, definitely not even close to being as good as the furniture stuff you found those:

Coinman123,

Ive never found so many or as complete before either. I wonder if the dresser rotted away there or someone salvaged the pulls and lost them. If they were salvaged they were meticulous to put back all the backing screws because they are all rusted in place.

Amazing, all being in one area. Any hinges or brackets? I wonder if the actual furniture piece rotted away.

No sign of any hinges or brackets there was a small metal caster wheel tho..
