Description

This hand forged coinbase Suffolk thumb latch is made using traditional blacksmith techniques and finished with a natural beeswax coating. The latch is forged from solid iron and assembled by hand to create a strong and dependable door fastening suited to traditional interior joinery. The latch features round coinbase fixing plates, formed by hammering the iron to create a raised edge around the fixing points. This detailing strengthens the fixing areas and reflects classic forged ironwork commonly seen on period doors, cottages and heritage interiors. Once forged, the latch is treated with a beeswax finish. This finish provides light surface protection while preserving the natural appearance of the iron and is intended for interior use. The beeswax finish works particularly well with timber doors and traditional settings, including restoration projects and character properties. The Suffolk thumb latch operates using a thumb press on one side of the door, engaging a latch bar on the opposite side. It is suitable for internal doors such as room doors, pantry doors, cupboard doors and ledged-and-braced doors where a traditional latch mechanism is required. The latch is supplied complete with matching fixing screws and all necessary components for installation, including the latch bar and keep.

Care & Maintenance: The Beeswax finish should be maintained with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust, and an occasional light application of beeswax or maintenance wax will help preserve its surface. As this finish is intended for interior use only, the hardware should be kept away from damp or high-moisture environments.

About the Beeswax Finish

Beeswax is one of the oldest and most traditional finishes used on forged ironwork, giving each piece a soft, natural depth that feels warm to the touch. When the metal is hot-dipped into pure honey beeswax, the surface settles into a gentle matt tone that brings out the character of the steel without overpowering it. This finish creates a calm, authentic look—perfect for interiors where a traditional, understated atmosphere is preferred. Over time, the beeswax gently mellows, developing a pleasing lived-in patina that suits cottages, period homes, timber doors and hand-finished joinery. A quick polish with a soft cloth from time to time helps maintain its subtle sheen and keeps the finish feeling warm and organic. With simple occasional care, the beeswax retains its inviting appearance and remains one of the most charming finishes for interior ironmongery. Because beeswax is a natural finish, the surface may occasionally show a light bloom or a little excess wax when it arrives, and this can be refreshed easily with a soft cloth or a warm wipe, allowing the finish to settle beautifully into place.
