Matching Brass Handles | If replacing drawer handles, check distance between holes |
Colonial Chippendale Pulls exhibit the bold style favored by Thomas Chippendale. This 18th century cabinet maker is famous for creating his unique furniture and drawer pull style. It is a mixture of Gothic, rococo and Chinese influences. These drawer pulls have a large and architectural appearance.
Chippendale Drawer Pulls are authentically reproduced with accurate detail and appropriate weight. Each is solid brass with a shiny polished finish. They are not lacquered and will age over time.
Measure Colonial Chippendale Pulls
- Boring: distance between center of mounting hole to center of adjacent mounting hole.
- If replacing handles: replacement-handle-boring must match actual boring measurement in drawer.
- Overall Size: width and height of handle at widest point.
