Antique Old Style Brass Casters are an early design from the mid 1800's. Originally they were used on table and chair legs.

These old style furniture casters are reproduced to match originals. Each is solid brass crafted from substantial castings. Finish is antique, it is darkened to look old. Old style brass casters are defined by the unusual distinctly shaped stem that is short and thick. Caster swivels at swivel-joint between fork and leg plate.
Load Capacity, caster strength and stability is directly related to correct installation. If a caster is incorrectly installed it will-not be strong or serviceable.
During the course of restoring a late 19th century walnut kitchen table we realized that three of the four cast iron casters were broken and needed replacement. These casters were an exact duplicate to the originals in an antiqued brass. They look great and fitted perfectly.
I looked high and low for replacement casters on my 1930's mahogany dresser. Paxton Hardware casters are the perfect solution. They blend with the existing brass hinges nicely, and were relatively easy to install. Ordering was simple. I received them quickly and I am very pleased with the outcome.
One of the old casters snapped in half at the base of my victorian parlor chair. I ordered this for a replacement after carefully comparing the measurements. The stem was a little wider than the original, so I followed another buyer's advise about gently widening the hole by scraping the sides with a screwdriver. Worked well and gentle way to take out just a little at a time as needed. I made sure there was enough wood removed so that the stem wouldn't put undue pressure on the old wood. My chair foot felt a little fragile, so I strengthened it with a little epoxy solution before installing the new castor.
Castor was the exact same design as the original so other than widening the hole a bit, installation was super easy. Chair is now good as new (Old) :) Would definitely purchase again. Quality is great and shipping was quick.
These casters are a perfect match in form, fit, and function to the old ones. We have a vintage dining room table that’s been in my wife’s family for generations, but over time several of the casters were damaged or lost, making the table unstable. With these replacements installed, the table has been returned to service and we successfully used it for a family Thanksgiving dinner. Very happy with this purchase.
Almost identical to the remaining wheel on my table. Replaced all. Very happy. Arrived in 2 days.
