DESCRIPTION For a quintessential Victorian or Georgian look in your home, try our vintage, Thumb Screw window stay in solid brass, an adjustable 20cm window stay that will bring a timeless elegance to casement windows. An essential fixture for casement windows, window stays will keep your window open and in place when the window is open, and securely shut when the window is closed.These stays have a weighty, tactile quality and smooth mechanism that can only be achieved by using high quality metals in their making. Brass fittings have become a staple of modern interiors as their 'honeyed' tones inject a sense of warmth and a timess, heritage appeal into your home. Our Thumbscrew stays are hand finished at Jim Lawrence and are available in two lengths to fit a variety of window sizes. Please note, they are not suitable for windows that swing out and up. They cannot be used in conjunction with our Lockable window stay pins are they have no holes for the pins to secure to. To create a stylish, uniform look, we also make matching London Window Latches. Kindy note, our window stays are designed for side-hung casement windows. They won't work on a top-hung casement window because of the angle of opening. The stay needs to sit flat to latch, and a top hung casement window will take it up at a steep angle. Instead, you will need to use a friction hinge, which are not currently in our product range. FINISH Antiqued Brass: A beautiful natural finish produced by distressing the brass to create a soft patina that is then treated with antiquing solution to speed up the natural tarnishing process and create a lovely aged look that will darken naturally over time. To find out more about our finishes and how best to maintain them, please read our Product Finish page. WE ALSO RECOMMEND... Our selection of left and right handed London window latches. For a lockable window stay, try our London window Stays or Georgian window stays. If you prefer a forged iron look to your room, browse our Manson range.
