Antique iron lock – Authenticity and historical value
Robust and decorative warded lock
The antique iron lock is a prime example of the craftsmanship of bygone eras. Also known as a warded lock or lever lock , it was commonly used on gates, wooden doors, and main entrances, symbolizing security and status. Its visible and robust mechanism, combined with the strength of wrought iron, makes it a historical object of great decorative value today.
This antique iron lock features a solid design with a semicircular faceplate, a classic Gothic keyhole, and a sliding bolt. The back reveals the internal workings with original rivets and a dark patina, the result of age. These characteristics distinguish it from any modern reproduction and give it a unique character.
