ANTIQUE BRASS DOOR KNOCKER
A good example of a large brass lion head door knocker. This one has the strike plate built into the casting.
This antique knocker originally had a rusted & snapped off bolt in the lower threaded hole (see the last image), but both have now been drilled and tapped to accept the new M5 bolts that are supplied with it.
Date: Victorian or early 20th Century.
Condition. Good functional condition. As mentioned above, the fitting comes with new bolts which will need to hacksawed to length to suit your door thickness. There are a few spots of historic white and yellow paint around the edge. The knocker has been lightly cleaned on the raised points but tarnish remains in the crevices which helps to retain the antique appearance.
