This is a set of 5 antique locks with their matching key.  The locks 
were in the drawers of a beautiful European desk that was destroyed by 
movers.  The desk was over 100 years old.  We do not know the exact 
country of origin, but the family the desk was inherited from lived in 
Germany.  Three of the locks measure about 3 3/4 inches x 2 1/4 inches x
 about 3/4 inch at the widest point; 1 lock measures about 3 2/5 inches x
 2 1/5 inches x 1 inch at the widest point; 1 lock measures about 4 1/5 
inches x 2 3/10 inches x 3/4 inches at the widest point (see pictures 
with ruler).  The inside of one lock is covered in dusty fuzz, 2 locks 
are really clean for their age, and 2 locks have a small amount of dirt -
 we were reluctant to clean them as we do not know much about locks.  
The key locks and unlocks each lock easily.
