Le Beau Paon Victorien: This and That: What Could This Be?
This is the inside of the door. Seriously.who does this?? All of the doors in the upstairs of our house have their original, beautiful decorative metal knob collars, key plates and hinges, but they were all painted over when someone re- painted the doors. I find it interesting, however, that all the closets had a key plate and evidently, a key that could lock them. I wasn't aware that most people needed to lock their closets, but I suppose they had their reasons!
