The negative space of the keyhole section is also unusual and interesting. The covers were meant to protect the wood around the keyhole opening as well as align the key with the keyhole. Keyhole covers could be plain or elaborate. They were also called \u201cescutcheons;\u201d but \u201ccover\u201d is a more commonly used word.<\/span><\/p><h5><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Pastel Keyholes<\/span><\/h5><figure id=\"attachment_159\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-159\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-159\" src=\"https:\/\/memoryboxart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/19-Pastel-keyholes-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/memoryboxart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/19-Pastel-keyholes-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/memoryboxart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/19-Pastel-keyholes-1024x1021.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/memoryboxart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/19-Pastel-keyholes-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/memoryboxart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/19-Pastel-keyholes-768x766.jpg 768w, https:\/\/memoryboxart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/19-Pastel-keyholes-1536x1532.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/memoryboxart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/19-Pastel-keyholes-75x75.jpg 75w, https:\/\/memoryboxart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/19-Pastel-keyholes.jpg 1894w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-159\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pastel Keyholes<\/figcaption><\/figure><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I played with the notion of colour in the second memory box, \u201cPastel Keyholes,\u201d since the Objects are still partially covered with old colours of paint. The tints are all pale, which is interesting, meaning they could have come from one house that was painted in light colours. Door hardware on older doors eventually became painted over, and I do not know if the beauty that we see today in the brass or other metals and the design was appreciated. It could be these utilitarian Objects eventually faded into the background, much like today\u2019s door hardware might. I like to think that the manufacturers made the hardware both durable and with fine design elements that we can appreciate today.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blyth Festival Art Gallery From May until September 2022, local artists were invited by the Blyth Gallery Exhibition Committee to submit two pieces for display at the Bainton Gallery in the Blyth Community Memorial Hall.
