Kitchen Stoves: Vintage knobs

Reviewed by:

They don't make knobs like these anymore -- but fortunately for owners of vintage appliances Antique Gas Stoves has a large stock of salvaged parts. The knob at top left is for an O'Keefe and Merritt stove; top right, a Wedgewood stove; and bottom, a universal replacement. New reproduction knobs are also available. Prices for knobs range from around $11 (new, replacement) to $45 for vintage, name knobs, to $70 for oven handles (September 2004). Other hard-to-find parts are also available, including knob rings, owner's manuals, drip pans, door springs and more.
