A high-end, heavy-duty wooden wedge doorstop crafted from dense 8/4 white oak to withstand high-traffic door impacts. The design features a precisely routed 1/8" deep center channel on its sloped face to recess a thick vegetable-tanned leather bumper. The leather protects door finishes while providing high-friction contact. The assembly utilizes both contact adhesive and decorative brass escutcheon pins to permanently secure the leather insert against mechanical shear forces.
