DESCRIPTION Achieve the perfect finish for your doors with our classic oval Whatfield Eschutchon Plate that will protect your keyhole and offset your other door fittings beautifully. Made from solid, natural brass or high quality forged iron, these escutcheons add decorative interest to your door as well as providing much needed protection. The term escutcheon comes from the Latin for shield and was first used to describe shield shaped emblems on heraldry and coats of arms in Medieval Europe. Over time, as people wanted more privacy and the use of doors became more common, escutcheons were adapted to refer to the small, functional shields that were used to protect keyholes from wear and tear and banish draughts. Shown above in our antiqued brass finish, this escutcheon is lovingly crafted from solid brass and antiqued for a subtle aged appeal. All Jim Lawrence products are made using traditional metal working techniques and are hand finished to the highest standards here at our Suffolk workshop. The Whatfield Escutcheon comes supplied with x 2 wood screws in the same finish. For a similar look, team them with our range of door and window furniture in antiqued brass and our collection of antiqued brass door accessories. PRODUCT INFORMATION Dimensions: 5H x3W (cms)Finish: Antiqued Brass - a beautiful, natural finish produced by gently 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. Antiqued Brass is an incredibly versatile finish that works well with any colourway and natural building materials and looks equally at home in a modern property as it does a period one.
