Absolutely exquisite!!!!!!

Gail Colby (Easter Egg Complete Set)

An Easter Egg head for the same base, so the door changes with the seasons. It fits any Yorkshire Foundry base.

Read the full description

An additional interchangeable head for customers who already own a Yorkshire Foundry Complete Kit.

A way to mark spring on your door without buying a whole new knocker. Swap it onto the base you already own and you’re set in seconds.

At its centre sits the egg, framed by the small signs of early spring. Daffodils opening. Tulips pushing through. The quiet shift that comes when the light changes and the garden begins again. The detail is deliberate rather than decorative. You notice it when you step closer.

That detail only survives because of how we make it: 3D-printed in wax, then investment cast one at a time.

Starting from scratch? The Easter Egg complete knocker comes with the base and fixings.

It attaches to your existing base using our interchangeable system. No new holes. No drilling. You’ll need at least one complete kit to begin with, but every head in the range fits the same base.

Cast in the same AB2 aluminium bronze we use across the range, with the warm brass tone most people are looking for. It arrives bright and will deepen naturally with time and touch. If you prefer it lighter, a quick polish will bring it back.

Backed by a 30-year guarantee. If it’s not right, we’ll make it right: 90 days for a full refund, no faff. Buying it as a gift? It arrives in plain, recyclable packaging ready to give.

Sits well on a painted cottage door, pale render, a spring porch, or anywhere the season is worth marking. Up for Easter and spring, then swap back when the season turns.

Material. AB2 aluminium bronze, left unlacquered. It will not rust. It handles salt spray, rain, frost, and decades outdoors. The warm brassy colour deepens with age. Nothing is plated on, so nothing chips off. It weathers far better than brass. The full spec is CuAl10Ni5Fe4.

Casting. Investment cast from 3D-printed wax patterns. Whiskers, feathers and fur come out in detail no hand tool can reach. Every piece is finished and checked by hand.

Fixings. Front-screw fix to the door face. Fits composite doors, solid wood doors, and metal doors. No through-bolts, no drilling all the way through.

System. The head separates from the base. Fit the base once, swap the head as often as you like. Forty-plus heads in the range, plus a wreath holder.

Head only. Just the head. It attaches to the starter kit from a Complete Set already fitted to your door. If this is your first Yorkshire Foundry knocker, you need the Complete Set.

Guarantee. 30 years.

It arrives fresh from the foundry in the warm colour people call brass, and it won't stay that colour. It has a living finish: it darkens where it sits out of the rain and brightens where rain runs off it. Give it time and it looks as if it has always been on that door.

If you want it bright again, a quick buff with a soft cloth and a little brass polish brings the warm colour back to life. We do not lacquer it, because we would rather keep the character than the gloss.

Left alone, it keeps getting darker with time and touch. The finish moves. The casting carries our 30-year guarantee against defects in materials or craftsmanship.

Frequently asked

Do you offer other finishes, like silver, chrome or antique brass?

We don't plate. Every head is cast and left as the metal: a warm golden tone most people call brass, which deepens as it ages. If you want a different colour, we can hand-finish a head in Cerakote, a hard-wearing ceramic coating, in almost any shade, made to order. Email us and we'll sort it.

How big is it?

Every product page lists the exact head and full-set dimensions. As a guide, a full knocker stands around 21cm tall and 9cm wide, with the depth changing a little from design to design.

Do you ship to the US or worldwide?

We ship from Yorkshire to the EU, EEA, Switzerland, Jersey, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates. Delivery is £14.95 to the EU, EEA, Switzerland and Jersey, and £24.95 to the others. Any import duty or tax is set by your own country and charged on arrival. Anywhere else? Email us for a delivery quote.

Is it really guaranteed for 30 years?

Yes. Every knocker is cast, not plated, and backed by our 30-year guarantee. If something isn't right, we'll put it right.
