Antique Bronze Door Handles
These beautiful antique bronze door handles, are real, sandcast bronze handles and would look stunning on any door.
The bronze door handles in the photo are the CR 1902 Lichfield Handles on a Round Rose.
These are a very stylish “scroll” style lever, which are shown in the photo in the “Real Bronze Metal Antique” finish. This isn’t a bronze “finish” on brass, but is real, traditionally sandcast bronze, which is British made, with each one individually finished by hand.
These bronze door handles are available in three types of real bronze – Real Antique Bronze (as seen in the photo), Tudor Bronze and Polished Bronze (gunmetal).
The “real antique bronze” is sandcast bronze, which is aged prematurely in a kiln and then polished by hand. This gives a beautiful patinated finish and also brings out the rainbow colours often seen in bronze.
Polished bronze is again sandcast bronze, which is polished up to a very high sheen. Rather than the brown patinated colour of antique bronze, polished bronze (often known as gunmetal) is a “coppery” colour, with a hint of pink.
Tudor bronze is also real sandcast bronze. The bronze is barrell-rolled to give a slightly pitted effect, making this finish more rustic in appearance.
These levers are also available in cast brass and many other plated and applied finishes and mounted on many different styles of backplate and rose, to suit mortice locks, latches and multipoint locking mechanisms.
