The origins of the bail pull can be traced back to 18th Century French Rocco furniture, but we have found inspiration in a more refined, less ornate, 19th century design.  Highlight the scullery, bring sophistication to the office, or whisper charm back into the bedroom armoire - you decide, but it's certain to be a conversation starter wherever it lands.  Offered in Burnished Unlacquered Brass and Polished Unlacquered Brass, both of which will continue to age with time.

A NOTE ON FINISH

Our burnished finish is a living finish, applied by hand, and is made in small batches. There may be slight variation from product to product. It's what makes the finish special. We encourage you to check with us before placing a large order to ensure your order comes from the same batch.

A NOTE ON LEAD TIME

We try our very best to keep items in stock in sufficient quantities, but with handmade small batch hardware that's not always possible.  Inventory changes on a daily basis and while the vast majority of non custom items will ship out within a week or two, if for some reason your project is on a tight timeline, we encourage you to reach out prior to ordering to verify individual quantities and lead time. 

CARE AND CLEANING

Unlacquered brass is a lovely material that will naturally darken and age with use and exposure. Most of our customers never touch a knob or pull. Whatever you decide, do not use harsh chemicals or bleach. We always recommend a mild dish detergent and water for routine care. If the desire is to bring our polished finish back to its original condition a brass polish can be used, but please do not use this with any of our aged products (Burnished Brass and Vintage Brass) as it will damage the finish. If you prefer the ability to obtain a new brass look down the road always start with our polished brass.

INSTALLATION

Many of our products are supplied with exposed screws for installation. From a manufacturing Standpoint this is always a battle of form vs function. Everyone wants a beautiful exposed screw, but to do this, we have to use decorative screws that are not as robust as a large screw hidden behind a cabinet door or drawer. We always recommend predrilling cabinet doors and drawers, enlisting the services of a contractor, and installing without the assistance of power tools. If you break a screw off in the course of installation, we are not liable for a failure to follow these instructions. Screws are provided as a courtesy and are your responsibility to install correctly.
