Art Deco Cast Iron Door Knocker – 1920s France
In Excellent Condition – No Reserve

This decorative Art Deco door knocker dates from the 1920s and is made of solid cast iron, weighing approximately 1.95 kg.
Beautifully sculpted as a classical female head with elegant drapery and floral adornments, this piece combines architectural grace with the bold geometric lines typical of the Art Deco era.

The knocker features two newly fitted wing-nut bolts, replacing the original corroded ones, ensuring it is both secure and ready for use. A fine, heavy-quality object with strong sculptural presence and patina that reflects its authentic age.

Dimensions: 20 x 15 x 7 cm (h x w x d)
Weight: app 1.95 kg
Material: Cast iron
Period: 1920s
Condition: Excellent vintage and complete condition; fully functional and structurally sound.

Historical context:
During the 1920s, architectural ironwork often reflected the optimism and craftsmanship of the Art Deco period, merging industrial precision with artistic stylisation. Door knockers like this one were typically found on grand townhouses and villas, embodying both durability and aesthetic sophistication.

A striking and collectible piece of early 20th-century architectural design — perfect for restoration projects or as a decorative wall ornament.
