Using L'Enfant Vintage and Antique Hardware - Doorknobs, Hinges, Push Plates and Pulls
The L’Enfant Style Glass Doorknob is a beautiful way to add elegance and detail to all the doors in your home. The L’Enfant style is characterized by ornate solid brass rosette plates featuring the classic dolphin and cornucopia and transom arched top. This design is based loosely on the Russwin design that became popular during the 1920’s in America. Cast in solid brass this design uses the lost-wax casting process to preserve the fine details.
L’Enfant style glass doorknobs are a timeless and welcome addition to any home. This style exemplifies ornate detail and beauty. L’Enfant style doorknobs are cast in solid brass and are available in a variety of finishes including Polished Brass, Antique Brass, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Satin Nickel and Polished Chrome. The L’Enfant style doorknob set can be used as an interior doorknob or exterior entryway set.
L’Enfant style doorknobs are produced today – allowing you to incorporate their patterns into your doors and other areas of your home. The L’Enfant style is a great way to introduce a common theme throughout your house. These doorknob sets can transform a boring entryway into an elegant showpiece – but be sure to follow a few simple steps. First, use the L’Enfant style when replacing the exterior and interior doorknobs in your home. Second, replace old and worn cabinet hardware with similar French or ornate style knobs and pulls to create a common theme. Note: Using similar styles throughout your home will help tie the look together for you. You can also introduce this theme into your lighting and other home hardware. You can ask an interior designer or other design experts for assistance or look to decorating magazines for help.
L’Enfant Style Glass Doorknobs are readily available online as well as in many home decorating catalogs. Search for solid brass construction and be sure to ask questions. What is the center to center mounting distance? Is this available in other finishes? Can I get entryway sets keyed the same? It is important to pay attention to detail when selecting new doorknob sets for your home. These L’Enfant Style doorknobs can be found online through LookInTheAttic & Company and they also offer free design assistance and help.
