J & F Pool copper door plates

Description

Two large copper door plates made by J & F Pool from Hayle in Cornwall around 1910.

The work of J & F Pool is very distinctive thanks to their Art Nouveau Glasgow style motifs and their hammered finish. The beautiful heart design on one of these door plates is often attributed to Talwin Morris.

Made of a good gauge of copper, these are large door plates that would no doubt have adorned the doors in a very impressive house.

Door plates by J & F Pool are very rare, particularly in this impressive size.
