The epitome of form meets function, these decorative hardware selections add sparkle and style. Just a quick change-out can make a dramatic impact on kitchen and bath cabinetry, and entry doors.
Geometric Entrance
Style and structure mark the Textures collection of door hardware. Handcrafted from solid bronze, the handlesets offer geometric designs of circles, squares, or stripes, on the escutcheon. The circle and square designs measure 2½ inches wide; the striped style is 3½ inches wide. Requiring a minimum 13/8-inch door thickness, all three styles are a stately 18 inches tall and include a mortise lock, cylinder, and spindle. Six patinas are available.

Pull of the Tropics
Add a touch of the tropics to kitchens and baths with Fiji Collection hardware, cast in pewter and featuring inlays fashioned from seashells. Three colorways are derived from paua shells, which shimmer in pearlescent greens, blues, and violets; tiger cowry, offering a rich brown tortoise-shell look to set off wood finishes; or translucent white agate that shimmers as the light moves. Three finishes are available for pieces ranging from cabinet pulls to towel bars. Pullware. 866.785.5927. www.pullware.com.

Faceted Fixtures
Decorative cabinetry knobs with clear or sapphire-blue Swarovski crystal inserts are the latest addition to the Cal Trim accessory line. Available in more than 30 decorative finishes, the knobs are designed to coordinate with the maker’s faucets and other bathroom fittings. Swarovski Strass crystal handle upgrades are also available for other California Faucets series. California Faucets. 800.822.8855. www.calfaucets.com.
Bronze Age
Give swing and sliding patio doors a distinct and stately look with HLS 9000 multipoint hardware in bronze. The Hoppe Bronze line is produced using an investment casting process, which offers greater design flexibility, and tighter tolerances for greater accuracy. Once the handle is cast, it is burnished through a process of tumbling the bronze with various sizes of rock, crystal, and cold water. A hand-rubbed patina finish gives the metal a warm glow. The patina is considered “alive” and will subtly change in color and texture over time. Hoppe. 888.485.4885. www.us.hoppe.com.
