Inspired by Ernest Batchelder, this Arts & Crafts style wall doorbell chime cover is a stylish way to hide those little chime boxes many houses have.
Transform a functional doorbell box into a considered architectural detail.
This handcrafted doorbell chime cover is inspired by the geometric language of Ernest Batchelder, translating Arts & Crafts principles into a clean, enduring form for the modern home.
Warm wood tones and restrained geometry allow the piece to sit comfortably within Arts & Crafts, Mission, and Craftsman interiors, while remaining understated enough to complement Mid-Century Modern spaces.
Shown here in Copper Patina Foil finish, or you can select other finishes and wood. Each cover is cut to order and may be customized in alternate finishes or wood species to suit the character of your space.

Designed with acoustics in mind, the vellum panels act as a high-frequency diffuser rather than a barrier. The cover behaves more like a speaker enclosure than a sealed box, preserving the chime’s full volume while subtly refining its tone.
Commonly compatible with many Rittenhouse, NuTone, Broan, Edwards, Friedland, and similar builder-installed doorbell chimes.
Materials & Craftsmanship
Because natural materials are used, variations in color, grain, and texture will occur—each piece is uniquely its own.
Items are made to order in my U.S.-based artisan workshop. Please allow time for design, fabrication, and careful packaging prior to shipment.
This piece is made using FSC®-certified wood sourced from a family-run, multi-generational American mill. Materials are selected with care to support responsible forestry and small businesses.
Orders are packaged using recycled materials and water-soluble, biodegradable cellulose packing peanuts whenever possible.
