    Hi Virginia, that is truly a beautiful bit of metalwork there, very nice find... and it looks like the wood has been patched under where the knocker would hit... Grain in the wood is gorgeous also... I wonder how old it is ?

    Any travel plans on the horizon ?

    Alexa,
    You Win!!!

    Owen,
    Sharp eyes. I didn't see that ! Oui, peut-être en février?
    I have my fingers crossed and will of course want to see you again and take some photos together? :)

    Love this!!! Especially the placement of the knocker at the bottom of the photo...nicely composed V!!!

    Oh...BTW...I think the piece under the knocker might be metal...to facilitate the knock!!!
