How old are these knobs? Almost looks like ceramic (white portion).

An architectural salvage center near you?

Yep, that's going to be your best (and perhaps only) hope. If you're in
or near a major metro area in the U.S. or Canada at least, there's
probably at least one such place which may have old, matching (or at
least close) knobs.

You know, not everything in the world can be found over the internet ...

Have standard knobs sprayed with automotive paint or powder coat knobs
to make a standard lockset appear similar. Unless there are two
locksets next to each other, you're the only one who will be any the
wiser.

Not that old, home was built in 1995. And yes, I have searched e-bay.
There is one on e-bay that is close enough if the setback and door
thickness would work. I am going to contact the seller and ask.

It is going on a rarely used closet door so I would actually settle for
a privacy knob (lock on inside and no key on outside). In fact, that may
be what I really need because the door is only 1 3/8" thick and the
setback is only 2 3/8".

Please don't ask why I need a lock on a rarely used closet. :-)

Looks a heck of a lot like an old Weiser. Does the latch
have a brand name? Look at the edge of the door, and let us
know if a brand name is found there.

Do you have an operating key? What numbers and letters on
the key?

There are 16 of these knobs in this house including the entry, bed/bath,
and passage and not a one has a name on it EXCEPT the one that I
replaced a couple of years ago and it is identical and it is a Weiser!

You definitely have a good eye.
