The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Door hardware from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries frequently featured a combination of cast metal mountings and ceramic, glass, or wooden grips. Designs moved from heavily ornamented brass to cleaner nickel-plated finishes alongside ceramic components in contrasting shades such as black or white.

These pulls were constructed using a central ceramic or porcelain body mounted on a central metal rod. The assembly was secured at either end by nickel-plated brass or iron brackets featuring oval backplates for screw attachment to timber doors.

Authentic period examples typically show minor manufacturing irregularities in the ceramic glaze, age-appropriate wear to the nickel plating revealing base metal beneath, and standard slotted screw holes rather than modern cross-head fittings.

These handles can be mounted on interior timber doors, pantry entrances, or large fitted wardrobes to introduce period authenticity. The contrast between silver-toned nickel and black ceramic complements both traditional joinery and contemporary dark-painted cabinetry.

Clean the porcelain grips with a mild soapy water solution and a soft cloth, avoiding abrasive cleaners. The nickel-plated metalwork should be wiped clean gently and treated with a non-abrasive metal polish only if necessary to prevent stripping the thin nickel layer.
