The Georgian Design Story
Georgian architecture is synonymous with proportion, symmetry, and understated elegance. This door knob embodies those principles - the simple spherical knob, the rectangular back plate, the balanced proportions. It's design that doesn't shout for attention but commands respect through timeless refinement.
Built for Period Properties
If you own a Georgian, Victorian, or Edwardian property, you understand the importance of period-appropriate hardware. Modern knobs look wrong on historic doors - they break the spell. This authentic Georgian knob maintains the integrity of your period home while providing reliable modern functionality.
Keyhole Flexibility
Choose normal keyhole for traditional skeleton key locks, or cylinder keyhole for modern cylinder locks. This flexibility means you can maintain period aesthetics while using contemporary security hardware.
The Back Plate Advantage
The 145mm back plate isn't just decorative - it protects your door from wear around the knob area, a critical consideration for valuable period doors. The plate also adds visual weight and presence that enhances the Georgian aesthetic.
Perfect for Georgian properties, Victorian homes, period restorations, traditional interiors, and anywhere authentic 18th-century elegance matters.
