KNOB APPEAL

I've lived in the city for decades and just recently found my way to the decorative hardware shop P.E. Guerin in Greenwich Village-and not a moment too soon. Founded in 1857, Guerin is the oldest firm of its kind in the United States, manufacturing some of the finest artistic metalwork in the country.
 Bamboo Pull in Brass
I have a weak spot for beautiful hardware.
Hexagon Door Knocker
 There are days I find myself stopping on the street to admire a front door embelished with a fantastc door knocker. 
If its fabulous and unique, its probably from Guerin.
Louis XVI Pull
I think the right door pull can instantly transform a plain cabinet 
Goth Door Knob
or front door

Louis XVI Finial


into something spectacular!
thank you all for the great response to the book giveaway Taste of Italy and congratulations to Jeanne at I Dream Of!

Their things are truly like small jewels/works of art. Absolutely gorgeous!

Our French Inspired Home said...

Their items are simply amazing. I am not familiar with them so I will certainly look them up.

I Dream Of said...

Oh! How fun to find myself a winner. I'm thrilled. Thanks Barbara!
Since we just gave our door a facelift with a fresh coat of paint I'm now looking at the hardware thinking it might need a makeover, too. Thanks for the inspiration! XO
PS: You can shoot me an email at jeannemckay@yahoo.com and I'll send you my address.

Barbara,
What amazing hardware. I agree, hardware can make or break certain areas of a kitchen, bath or entry. How fun to visit the store.
Have a great weekend.

This is a fabulous company Barbara! Wish I could stop by their store in person and see all of their options instead of just a few at our stores.

Ӏ do hаve 2 questions for you if it's allright.
