The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Beehive key escutcheons are decorative brass hardware covers designed to protect keyholes on furniture and doors, featuring a ribbed turning profile popular during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Traditional escutcheons were cast from solid brass and turned on a lathe to shape the concentric ridges, followed by hand-finishing and precision drilling for mounting screws.

Authentic period examples often display subtle hand-turned variations, original thread proportions, and historical oxidisation within recessed grooves.

These metalwork fittings are installed during the restoration of period chests and cabinets, or applied to modern bespoke joinery to add architectural detail.

Clean brass hardware using a soft cloth and mild soapy water, avoiding abrasive polishes that can remove natural patina or scratch the metal surface.
