An unusually shaped Moravian open work wrought iron surface mount latch, circa 1800, with the removable screw-off exterior handle and rosette shown above lock. Levers are very deep spoon style and the off-side handle has an oval rosette with handle shown in mounted position below. These latches were made primarily by blacksmiths in Moravian settlements, hence the name. Lock body measures 7" x 3 1/2". This type of lock is not reversible and is left hand only and will fit a door up to 1 3/8" thick. This type of lock was used on both interior and exterior doors as the removable handle was actually used as a "key". When you left home or just wanted privacy, the handle was removed so the latch could not be operated from the outside. Each handle was hand threaded to match each individual lock and handles were not interchangeable between locks. Lock is in excellent condition, restored, and complete with replacement surface mount keeper. Complete with slotted mounting screws.
