March 9, 2007, Newsletter Issue #35: Antique Door Hardware: Cherishing Designs of the Past


1

Tip of the Week

Maybe you have a charming Victorian era home, or maybe you just built a new home that's in need of some character and classic style. Either way, antique door hardware may be one of the keys to beautifying your home with a salute to historical designs. The architecture of the Colonial Era, the Federal Age, the Arts and Crafts Movement, the Victorian era, and Modernism (era between 1920 and 1960) showcased superb door hardware and cabinet door hardware that are still in demand today.
Vintage, antique door hardware parts can be found at auctions, estate sales, demolitions, and through private collectors. You can also find period hardware through vendor websites on the internet or even on eBay listings. Register covers are another antique hardware item that can be sourced through similar avenues. Can't afford vintage antique door hardware parts? You might look into reproductions of period hardware that are almost indistinguishable from the originals.
