Antique Eagle Lock Company Tetraskelion Padlock And Key

This is a very nice Antique Eagle Lock Company Tetraskelion Padlock And Key. At least that is what I think it is, I'm not absolutely sure that it was made by Eagle...

The lock dates to the end of the 1800s/early 1900s and is made from brass/steel. It has two original keys, both of which can open the lock.  In fairly good condition, with some rust to the keys and the U-shaped shackle.

Approximate Dimensions of padlock: 

• Height (including shackle): 4cm
• Width: 3cm
• Depth: 0.5cm

Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about locks but the tetraskelion logo has been attributed to the Eagle Lock company in some forums. The symbol has absolutely nothing to do with Nazis or the third Reich. This style of cross is an ancient Indo-European symbol denoting prosperity and good health, and is a sacred symbol in Buddhism and Hinduism.  FIR is also stamped on the other side of the padlock.
