I am fascinated by old door knckers, you can still easily find some original ones around here, like this one in “Via Maggi”.
Opposite “Palazzo de Larderel”, in “Via de Larderel”.
A knocker not in very good shape in “Corso Mazzini”.
In “Via Magenta”, clearly not original but it is eye catching.
These are truly original and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI like door knockers, too...unless they're Mormon missionaries or Jehovah Witnesses...
ReplyDeleteNah, just kidding...I do like your kind of door knockers. I can't recall seeing anything similar around here...
I think I'm more used to seeing the ring-type door knockers. There are very artistic looking, especially the one in the third photo. Nice ;-D
ReplyDeleteThese are really cool specimens.
ReplyDeleteGreat series of door knockers. Who'd have guessed there was such a variety.
ReplyDeleteStrange, I've been going around looking for knockers too lately!
ReplyDeleteI especially like the first one.
They are superb!!! I'm also fascinated by door knocers and handles and take photos of them every time I come across one.
ReplyDeleteIt's difficult to decide which I like the most, but I think it's a first one.
As I have said before, you have eyes for details.
ReplyDeleteThese are really arty and nice. Thanks for sharing.
They are very serious.
ReplyDeleteWere you ever tempted to try one and to knock really loud?
Oh, how quaint. No bells, then? Doors must be really thick if you simply can't knock with your knuckle.
ReplyDeleteLove your knocker photos.
They are all lovely and very interesting to look at. I really like the color of the door in the first picture!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for this set of pictures, I think these doors are so charming!

Great selection, VP! All are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI like the contrast between the old and the new.
ReplyDeleteYour city has such great hardware. I'm surprised it hasn't been stolen.
