: Pair of Antique 19th-Century Scottish Odell Tenement Night Latch Keys

£50.00

Two genuine vintage/antique steel or iron Odell latch keys (also known historically as French latch lifters) dating from the late 18th to 19th century. Commonly used for communal front doors in historic Edinburgh and Glasgow tenement buildings, each key features a classic oval bow, a lathe-turned ringed collar, and a flat, spade-shaped bit with intricate pierced ward cutouts.

Both keys are approximately 6 cm in length (shown beside a standard Tunnock's Teacake for scale) and display an authentic, aged patina with light surface wear and mild oxidation consistent with age.
