Knock knock ...

...Who’s there?
Theodore.
Theodore who?
Theodore wasn’t opened so I knocked.

Oh dear, I am truly terrible at jokes. I cannot remember them. My mother was the same and she always got the punchline wrong.
Well this everyday little knocker TheBroon would have a joke ready at this point has been used everyday for years and years. It's quiet and unshowy (is that good for a knocker) and was once brass, now painted over in a distressed cerise. Should my door ever grace a knocker I would like one in the shape of a hand.  I just googled vintage knockers - lions are popular.
