The rice pattern was originally produced by Yale and Towne of Stamford Connecticut around 1885. We collected the original antique hardware and remade the moulds. Casting is done in the original antique bronze using the same techniques used over 125 years ago. With time the bronze will acquire a statuary patina. Noteworthy is the detailing on the hinge reveal that shows when the door is closed. Hinges are made the traditional way with removable ball tipped pins and opposing ball finials that unscrew. The knuckles are milled for precise movement. Note how the detailing on the reverse side is visible when the door is closed.
