These fabulous coastal inspired door knockers come from Colby Smith, a Swansea MA firm founded in 1976. Each piece is sand cast in solid yellow or red brass, hand finished, assembled and lacquered for tarnish resistance. I've never seen a horseshoe crab knocker - love it!

This one is the Quahog - which always makes me think of Rhode Island and my grandfather. He loved stuffed Quahogs!
Colby Smith also offers other beautiful knockers too. Do you have a favorite?

I am drawn to the scallop shell but the oak leaf and acorn in the last photo are lovely too.
Michele I love this feature because I always notice doors and their hardware. I used to give brass door knockers to friends all of the time! so many gorgeous selections available now.

Very unique proposals! I like it very, very much:-)
We have an anchor door knocker. No boat, just the door knocker, haha. I LOVE that horseshoe crab knocker! Those wash up on the beach frequently and the kids are fascinated with them. I am less fascinated, but I love that knocker!
