Old soul.\u003cbr\u003eThe door that brings the orchard to the street. Choose this over a plain brass fitting and the front of the house gets a bit of old England.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo.3 in Foundry 26, our year of 26 new designs, and second of the farmyard trio with the Yorkshire Pig and the Dairy Cow. The Gloucestershire Old Spots is one of Britain's oldest pedigree pig breeds, the orchard pig of the Berkeley Vale, and the old story says every spot is a bruise from a windfall apple. Ours wears its ears the proper way, folded low over the eyes. The character sits in the small stuff. The drop of the ears. The set of the snout. You notice it when you step closer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat detail only survives because of how we make it. We print the pattern in high definition, then cast it by hand in small batches using lost-wax investment casting. A mass-produced knocker comes out of a mould with a seam line and softened edges. Ours doesn't. No seam. No shortcuts. Detail no hand tool can reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCast in marine-grade aluminium bronze, the same alloy used on yacht propellers. It will not rust. It arrives bright, with the warm brass tone most people are looking for, and deepens naturally with time and touch. If you prefer it lighter, a quick polish brings it back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA complete set, supplied with a matching backplate and fixings. Fits standard doors. And because it's part of our interchangeable system, you can swap the head for another in seconds, no drilling, no new holes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/yorkshirefoundry.com\/pages\/interchangeable-door-knocker-system\"\u003eLearn more about our interchangeable system\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBacked by a 30-year guarantee.

The orchard pig.
