    Description

    RARE Vintage Axel Hasselstrøm
    Solid Cast Brass Door Knocker
    MADE IN DENMARK
    New Old Stock with original Danish tags.
    This quality door knocker was manufactured in the 1970s by
    the vintage Danish brass Maker Axel Hasselstrøm A/S.
    It is made out of solid, high quality heavy Danish-made brass.
    This is not the lightweight, thin, low-quality brass that comes
    from places like India, China, Mexico and Pakistan.
    See the Danish flag tag that says "Messing"
    Messing is Danish for brass.
    Door knocker has an aged brass finish with some antiquing to it.
    Features a Fox Hunting scene with a man on a horse who is blowing a horn,
    his dogs, and the on the knocking bar, the head of a fox!
    Denmark has a long history of castles, Kings and Queens,
    and one of their Royal pastimes was foxhunting!
    Approximate Measurements:
    6 Inches Tall
    4-3/4 Inches Wide, at widest points
    and
    about 1-1/2 Inches deep or thick at the fox head
    HEAVY FOR ITS SIZE, it weighs 1 Pound 9 Ounces, UNPACKED!
    Has two holes on mounting bracket. MOUNTING SCREWS NOT INCLUDED.
    I would recommend using appropriately long brass screws to support
    the weight of the door knocker.
    HISTORY:
    What a find!
    Imported from Denmark directly by my parents, who were importers.
    I will be listing multiple door knockers that were found inside a
    wooden crate with their original Danish plastic bags and tags on them.
    I removed the plastic bags to take detailed pictures.
    Own a piece of Danish Fox Hunting history!
