Rustic door fittings in natural materials

Aged Iron

Aged Iron (VO) is a natural material that is perfect for rustic interiors. It forms the perfect addition to light interiors and ensures a harmonious look & feel. The combination of a white door and black door fittings offers a balanced colour contrast which showcases the door fittings beautifully and ensures they are not eclipsed by the door design.

Darker materials also work well with the robust wooden accents that are often used in rustic interiors.

Bronze

Bronze adds a touch of class to warm interior styles. Rustic interiors are usually created using natural materials which are the perfect bedfellows for bronze.

The living finish of bronze also adds an authentic touch to your rustic interior.

Dauby’s bronze door fittings come in a range of finishes:

• White Bronze (WB)
• Satin White Bronze (WBS)
• Raw Bronze (RB)

• Dark Bronze (AZ)
• Natural Bronze (NB)

Rust

Another popular material in the rustic interior is Rust. Rust is created from cast iron that is allowed to rust naturally. It is then brushed and treated with a dark beeswax.

Note: the rust effect may vary, as it is formed using a natural process.
