Practical but not beautiful, beautiful but not practical. This has always been a paradoxical conflict. The Victorian style takes aestheticism to the extreme, showing a very complex decorative feature, and has an obvious tendency to violate the principle of function first.

Victorian door knockers often feature bold designs, such as complex curves, floral patterns, etc., demonstrating the unique pursuit of decorative arts at the time. They often use a variety of materials, such as brass, antique metals, porcelain, etc. These materials give the door knockers rich texture and color. Victorian door knockers may have unique shapes such as ovals, diamonds, or other non-traditional geometric shapes that make them stand out on the door.

The popularity of this style reflects the desire of the emerging bourgeoisie to use complex, expensive designs to display their status and wealth. Furthermore, they became symbols and decorations for nobles to display their status and status and thus started to lose their function becoming representative objects. Today they are mainly decorative, without practical significance, operating as a historical lens.
