FAQs

The lion mask motif has been used since antiquity in architecture and decorative arts to symbolise strength, courage, and protection for the home.

Period door knockers were typically produced using traditional sand-casting methods with heavy copper-alloy brass, often resulting in rich surface patination and unique casting textures.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit hand-filed finishing marks, appropriate weight from solid cast brass, natural wear patterns around striking points, and period-appropriate mounting screws or fixings.

Period brass hardware can be mounted on contemporary timber front doors to create a striking contrast, or used inside as decorative wall hooks or cabinet pulls.

To preserve the historical patina, avoid abrasive polishes and harsh chemicals; instead, gently remove surface dust with a soft cloth and apply a microcrystalline wax for protection.
