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.
