The story on this door knocker is one I really love. The woman I sourced this from runs a dog training and boarding facility and spends her spare time rescuing animals. She is the granddaughter of the original president of Wolf brand chili. Her uncle was an antiques dealer, and she acquired this from his estate after his passing. It reminds her of the wolves she grew up hearing so much about. I always thought Wolf was a family name, but it turns out the Texas chili company was named after the original founder's pet wolf! The stories of the pet wolves were passed down through generations, and this knocker always reminded her of those tales!
I always thought of these knockers as foxes, but it turns out both foxes and wolves belong to the biological family Canidae, and if you look up comparison pictures, you might be as torn as I am. No matter which direction you are leaning, this knocker is ready to become part of your family's lore.
We love a great door knocker since it is one of the very first things that greets guests and sets the tone for your whole home. If this one speaks to you, listen to the call of the wild!
This solid brass door knocker measures 9.75 tall x 4 wide x 3 deep.
