Overview

Discover the whimsical, historic, and boldly sculpted details of door knockers in this charming photo book showcasing fifty striking examples from grand estates to cozy cottages.

Captured against textured doors, ivy frames, and rainy thresholds, the images transform these functional ornaments into miniature sculptures of personality, craftsmanship, and cultural symbolism. Perfect for architecture lovers, hardware collectors, and anyone enchanted by the small details that greet us at the threshold.
