HANDLE
END CAPS

These go over the ends of
your new handles, made of stamped steel. No shiny brass finish on
these, they look right at home on your old trunk. Sized to fit over
handles that are 1.25 inch wide, the normal size. We sell these in
sets of four for $10, delivered to your door.

BRASS HANDLE END CAPS

Made to fit our standard
trunk handles, 1.25" wide, either with or without slots. These should
be used with handles that have slots in them in order to allow the handle
to slide back and forth in the bracket, which allows the handle to lay
flat against the side of the trunk when not in use. These are brass-plated
steel and are sold in sets of four for $10, continental USA shipping included.
We throw in brass pins that are intended to go through the center opening,
then through the slot in the handle.

FISH SCALE END CAPS
Modern reproductions of
the p[opular fish scale end caps that were used on many trunks in the mid
to late 1800s. These are simply used to cover the end of a leather
trunk handle. They'll fit over handles anywhere between 1' and 1-1/4"
wide. They're made of stamped steel and have a durable antique finish.
You can still paint them if you get the notioon - that's up to you - but
they look nice and old just the way they are.
Fish Scale End Caps
$12 per set of four, USA postage included
HANDLE BRACKETS OR LOOPS
WITH PINS

Loop Style #1 (Stock Number
LOOP1P) -- brass finish, with pins (also available in antique
brass finish - see below)
These brass-finish brackets
fit over slotted handles like the ones shown above. Takes four nails
to attach each loop, so you need a total of 16 nails to do one trunk.
Note that the handles don't need to be nailed to the trunk if you use these
loops, the pins under the loops hold the handles in place, and the slots
allow the handle to lay flat against the trunk when not in use. Slick.
A set of four of these, delivered to your door (no extra shipping or handling
charges for US customers) are priced at $12.00.
Same Brackets - Antique Brass
Finish
These fit in a little better
on old trunks.
Set of 4 Antique Brass Brackets
with Pins
$12.00, includes USA shipping.
Handle Loop Brackets
with No Pins

Loop Style #2 (Stock Number
LOOP2NP) -- no pins
These babies fit over wide-end
trunk handles like our TH-02 handles. Total of sixteen nails required
to attach four loops to a trunk. The handles themselves do not need to
be nailed to the trunk; the loop holds the handle in place. The handles
can move within the loop, so they lay flat against the trunk when not being
gripped. These are brass-plated steel, available in either bright
brass or antique brass finish. They have a polyurethane coating on
them. Set of four, delivered in the USA (no extra shipping or handling
charges) is priced at $11.50.

Loop Style #3
Loop Style #3 (Stock No.
Loop3)(very imaginative)
These are smaller loops,
often used on doll trunks or smaller boxes. They'll accept a handle
that is no wider than 7/8" and no thicker than 3/8".
Brass finish, but not too
terribly shiny. Attach with nails only because if you use screws
strange voodoo things may happen to your trunk.
These babies are $8 per
set of four.
