Michael Healy Solid Brass Acorn Lighted Doorbell Ringer

Full information about Michael Healy Solid Brass Acorn Lighted Doorbell Ringer

The Acorn Doorbell Ringer is sand-cast in solid brass and was designed by Michael Healy, an accomplished Rhode Island artisan known for his truly unique sculptural Doorbells. Brass and bronze are copper-based alloys. The yellow brass alloy used in many of Michael's designs contains 70% copper and produces a warm, traditional brass look. Red bronze contains almost 85% copper. This additional copper content gives the bronze alloy its rich, reddish undertone. The mirrored finish of polished brass and polished bronze is achieved through varying degrees of sanding and buffing. Michael uses these techniques to highlight or accent the raised areas on a piece Michael believes that your Doorbell should reflect your individuality and personal taste. This unique doorbell is the perfect finishing touch for your front entrance.The Acorn was hand-crafted using the age old art of sand casting. During the sand casting process molten brass is heated to over 2000ºF then carefully poured into a hand made sand mold. This mold is used only once, giving your Doorbell Ringer its individual character. Your Acorn is polished then lacquer coated to protect this original finish. It is signed in the mold by the artist, Michael Healy, confirming its authenticity.
