Lichfield Bell Pull – Aged Nickel Finish
Make a bold and beautiful entrance with the Lichfield Bell Pull in Aged Nickel - a refined example of Gothic Revival design, combining decorative period style with practical mechanical performance. Crafted from solid brass and finished in a characterful aged nickel, this statement bell pull is ideal for heritage properties, Victorian and Edwardian renovations, and traditional-style new builds aiming to capture the elegance of the past.
Whether you’re restoring a grand townhouse or enhancing a classic country home, this bell pull adds an authentic touch of 19th-century ironmongery to your exterior while providing reliable, non-electric functionality.
Gothic Revival Craftsmanship Meets Practical Performance
The Lichfield Bell Pull is inspired by the ornate detailing of the Gothic Revival movement, popular in British architecture during the mid- to late-19th century. Its tall vertical design and architectural form give presence and character to your entrance, while the aged nickel finish offers a cooler, more muted tone that harmonises beautifully with stone, painted timber, or dark brick façades.
This solid brass bell pull is sprung with a concealed return spring, ensuring the pull returns smoothly to its resting position after each use. The spring mechanism is discreetly housed within the wall cavity for a clean, traditional appearance with modern reliability.
Ideal Placement & Period Accuracy
- The Lichfield Bell Pull is particularly well-suited to:
- Victorian and Gothic Revival-era properties
- Period townhouses and manor homes
- Traditional rural or urban homes with double cavity walls
- New builds designed in a classic or heritage style
- Restorations and conservation projects requiring authenticity
With its vertical profile and strong projection, this bell pull makes a perfect feature beside large front doors, arched entrances, or within elaborate door surrounds. It complements other aged nickel door hardware from Bromleighs for a consistent and unified aesthetic.

Unlike modern electric doorbells, the Lichfield Bell Pull is part of a mechanical bell system - allowing homeowners to maintain period authenticity while still benefiting from a tactile, audible alert when visitors arrive. The aged nickel finish enhances the depth of the design’s detailing while developing a subtle patina over time for added character.
When combined with matching internal bell systems, pulleys, and period front door furniture, the Lichfield Bell Pull becomes more than a utility - it becomes a defining feature of your home’s historical style.
Complete your entrance with Bromleighs’ collection of aged nickel letter plates, door knobs, and escutcheons for a coherent, historically inspired exterior scheme.
