Large Round Escutcheon – Real Bakelite
Complete your traditional door furniture with this authentic Large Round Escutcheon – Real Bakelite. Manufactured from genuine Bakelite, this classic escutcheon is available in two versions to suit either a standard mortice lock key or a Euro-Profile cylinder lock, providing an attractive and durable finishing touch for period doors.
With its generous 56mm diameter, this larger-than-standard escutcheon is particularly popular in Europe and is ideal where a more substantial keyhole surround is preferred. The clean circular design complements both traditional and Art Deco interiors, making it an excellent choice for restoring original doors or enhancing heritage-inspired homes.
Available in Mottled Brown or Black, each escutcheon displays the distinctive depth and character that only genuine Bakelite can offer. Unlike modern plastic reproductions, real Bakelite has a solid feel, a rich finish and authentic period appeal that has made it a favourite for restorations since the early twentieth century.
Pair this escutcheon with our matching Real Bakelite Door Knobs to create a coordinated and authentic period look throughout your home.

Why Choose a Real Bakelite Escutcheon?
A Large Round Real Bakelite Escutcheon provides the perfect finishing touch for traditional doors. Not only does it protect and neatly frame the keyhole, but it also enhances the overall appearance of your door furniture with the distinctive character of genuine Bakelite.
Furthermore, the larger diameter creates a bold, elegant feature that works particularly well on substantial doors and complements matching Bakelite door knobs. As a result, it is an excellent choice for both faithful period restorations and homes inspired by early twentieth-century design.
