Arrowhead Hinge 24″

A pair of antique T hinges or rustic tee hinges.  These vintage antique T hinges are hand made in wrought iron and have decorative arrowheads.  These traditional black hinges are available in a range of sizes, and we stock other old door furniture to match.  This particular antique pair are 24 inches in length and so suited to a substantial cottage door.  We recommend the hinge length should cover half to two-thirds of the door width.  Old cottage style fixing screws are provided and the hinge base plates come with predrilled holes.

The rectangular hinge leaf measures 16.5 cm by 3.5 cm and the decorative hinge leaf is 56 cm long.  The arrowhead measures 4.5 cm wide.

Our wrought iron products are all hand forged, so though similar will not be identical.  Each piece is hand finished and given a beeswax coating.  All our hand-forged products are carefully aged for an authentic look.

Forging

Our hinges are hand forged and are made for us by artisan blacksmiths.  The hinges are produced in the ancient way of hand forging on the anvil.  The anvil is known to have been used for thousands of years.  The finished product will show these forging marks. Once the hinges are complete and before they are assembled, they are hand cleaned and hand polished.

It is only now that the final stage of treating with beeswax is undertaken.  Each hinge is dipped in natural beeswax.  The beeswax helps to protect the hinge from excessive rusting.  The wax will also give the hinge a uniform colour.
