A door stopper keeps your door open on drafty days and prevents doors from slamming shut. But it can also be an eye-catcher. In this collection you will find door stoppers that resemble animals from the garden.

Two styles

• ✔ Wooden door stoppers by Wildlife Garden: hand-carved and painted, as a duckling, frog, vineyard snail, winter aconite or mouse
• ✔ Cast iron door wedges by Esschert Design: as a bird, cat, dog or squirrel, and a classic model
• ✔ Suitable for interior and garden doors, sheds and garden houses

The wooden pieces are hand-carved and painted, making each piece slightly different. The cast iron door wedges have a sturdy, antique look with a rust-colored finish and are heavy enough to keep an exterior door in place even in the wind.

More than a door stopper

Also place them on a windowsill, bookcase or stair step: then they are simply beautiful decorative figurines.

Wood or cast iron?

Use

A door wedge is slid under the door; a standing door stopper is placed against the door. For heavy exterior doors or a lot of draft, cast iron is the sturdiest choice. A wooden door stopper is preferably placed indoors or in a covered space.

Also a nice gift
