Bungalow Door Knob – Long Backplate
The Bungalow Door Knob draws upon the ornamental details in original California Bungalow architecture. Its sturdy pressed brass form pays homage to the heritage of Australian mining towns where humble pressed door handles were once a feature within workers cottages.
For renovators seeking to restore authentic characteristics within their California-style Bungalow homes, this oval-shaped knob with its decorative backplate is a fitting choice for those built between 1915-1940.

Technical information
Finish care
Antique Copper
To achieve this finish, we plate a brass product in copper, it is then antiqued to give it a dark finish. Before setting, the antique finish is carefully rubbed back by hand to lighten the colour and reveal copper highlights. Lacquer is applied to the surface. Each product in this finish is hand aged, meaning each product has its own distinct variation and depth of colour. Designed to age, as the lacquer breaks down at touch points, this finish will continue to wear, showing brass highlights and forming distinct characteristics that look beautiful at every stage of its life.
Care: Clean it regularly with a damp soft cloth and be sure to keep it dry.
Caution: Take care to not damage the lacquer layer, as once this occurs the product will continue to age. With use, the finish will wear and reveal more copper which will also age.
