Item: 195 Description: Mini-Nail Knobs: Porcelain Cleats. This pair has their original square nails. They are two-piece “cleat” styles, where the wire fit in a groove and, when hammered into place, the cap squeezed on the wire and held it in place. The left one is Grade B for a couple small flakes; and the one on the right is Grade A . These seem to be scarcer than mini-knobs made of glass. Actually, we have been told that these and those in Item 196 are the only porcelain examples known. If you are aware of others, please let us know. Your one bid is for both. Please read the Item 193 description for an explanation for how these were used. Estimate: $75 - $100 Open: $40 Price realized: $140 |
