Solid Brass Shutter Shutter Wire Pintle & T-Hinge

These solid brass shutter wire pintle & hinge sets are commonly found installed in the northeastern United States on 19th century row homes clad in brown or red-brown sandstone, aptly named a "Boston Brownstone".

Existing elsewhere of course other than Boston, this unique wire pintle normally consisted of a single drive pintle (or shank pintle) with a support leg (the wire). The pintle shank is driven into the brick mold and secured with a single fastener through the leg.

Combined with a T-Hinge, this combination helped clear the width of the brick or stone while maintaining a tight alignment to the window opening edge. In many cases, when installed properly, the shutter will close proud over the window in a functional situation.
