Brass Crab Door Knocker

The Blue Crab Door Knocker was designed by Michael Healy, an accomplished Rhode Island artisan. Displaying this handsome sculpture will surely set any door apart while telling visitors of your special affinity to the bay. The Blue Crab Door Knocker is cast in solid brass. Brass and bronze are copper-based alloys. The yellow brass alloy used in many of Michael's designs contains 70% copper and produces a warm, traditional brass look. Red bronze contains almost 85% copper. This additional copper content gives the bronze alloy its rich, reddish undertone. The mirrored finish of polished brass and polished bronze is achieved through varying degrees of sanding and buffing.
