Vintage warmth and bold contrast from the Old English Whitby Ebony Wood Reeded Beehive Mortice Knob
The Old English Whitby Ebony Wood Reeded Beehive Mortice Knob in Polished Brass brings rich contrast and a warm, reflective glow to interior doors. The deep ebony tone adds drama and depth, while polished brass introduces a golden sheen that feels classic and welcoming. Because the brass finish reflects light so vividly, it brightens corridors and lifts painted doors instantly. At the same time, the reeded beehive profile adds texture, so the design feels detailed and tactile rather than plain.
Old English Whitby Ebony Wood Reeded Beehive Mortice Knob feel and everyday comfort
The Old English Whitby Ebony Wood Reeded Beehive Mortice Knob is shaped for confident daily use. Its rounded form sits naturally in the hand, and the reeded detailing improves grip without feeling sharp. Ebony wood also feels warmer to the touch than metal, which makes the knob especially pleasant in bedrooms and living spaces. Meanwhile, the polished brass rose adds a crisp outline around the timber, giving the door a finished, considered look. Because this is a face-fix style, it also brings a traditional touch that suits character properties and classic renovations.
