I am looking for a lower door knob to match the one pictured; it is 1 inch long.

Thanks

Is it for a Victrola XVI?

Have this one available from a XVI. Yours looks like a bronze color finish. This one could be stripped to brass and then darkened chemically.

I have seen Bronze finish ones on the record weights on the early versions of the 2nd Victor changer and the front doors of a VV 8-7.

I would like to find a pair of front pulls for a VV 8-7 myself.

Sorry for the delay, I am new to the forum and didn't see these responses.
It is on an early VV-X!V "Queen Anne."
They are more of a dark color though likely due to original finish gone.
Some more photos are attached - the door photo is the same knob, looks a bit more gold in this picture but isn't.

Thanks

The knobs used on the Queene Anne XIV are the same ones used on some L-Doors. I've owned and sold 2 of the XIV's and miss them both. Nice hardware, but not the cheapest or easiest to find.

Good Luck,

Matt

The hardware on the early VV-XIV Queen Anne machines was gold plated.
