Knob Gold
would resemble the 1928 bronze to gold?
I have a 1928 vintage dresser that we are refurbishing. it comes with a chest of drawers top has 2 doors that open with 5 hidden drawers. he had very detailed craftsmanship. anyway .... we clean buttons pull ring and began to search for gold. We removed a small piece of the doubt and not just gold plated. I called an antique dealer and asked them if they thought it was gold and they said it was impossible! Why? I know I can do a test of gold, but I wonder if the old bronze feels like gold. Thank you for your help!
It is probably not brass or bronze gold. To find out if it's gold, it must be tested. This will destroy the brass fittings and bronze in the solvent. It does a lot of gold. If the connections have been gold, they should have a karat mark on them. Otherwise, the color alone will tell if it's gold, watch a gold wedding band. Pure gold is rarely wrong when you see it.
