Period Features

Period Features is a small family business specialising in Hardware and Housewares for period and contemporary homes.

We have moved from our bricks and mortar shop in Leek to purely online but still guarantee the best products and service available. Period Features is a small company based in the attractive market town of Leek, on the edge of the Peak District. We aim to be an outstanding source of products for period homes, and to always provide excellent, friendly service. When we first opened our doors in 2001

, we mainly supplied high-quality hardware and heritage paints, but are now branching out into other areas as well. We only sell things we really like; we hope you like them too! Nearly all the products on our website can also be viewed and purchased at our shop in Leek, but it is advisable to telephone first to check availability if you are making a long journey. The shop is open between 10 am and 5 pm, Monday to Saturday. To visit our online shop, which is open 24 hours a day, please visit our online store at http://www.periodfeatures.co.uk/

Sundries… and no, not the tempting extras on your Indian takeaway menu!

In the world of interiors, “sundries” are the small details that quietly make all the difference — hooks, brackets, shutter k***s, bolts, vents, and all those finishing touches that bring a home together. Not always glamorous, but completely essential.

They’re the unsung heroes of every renovation — the pieces you barely notice when they’re right, but definitely notice when they’re wrong.

So next time you hear “sundries,” don’t think poppadom and chutneys… think beautiful ironmongery and the thoughtful details that give a home its character.
