We are so pleased to have had our doorknobs mentioned in Newsweek as one the most unique and stylish around – not to mention getting pride of place in the article, with just as much space as the entire text has! The door knobs featured are replicas of Louis XVI style door knobs – if you couldn’t tell from the intricate detail and patterning on the knob that it would look right at home in a castle. Newsweek has acknowledged what we have been telling you for so long now, that door knobs can smarten up (or dumb down!) the look of an entire room. They are your first tactile experience of a room – the first thing you come into contact with – and the miniscule patterning on this knob would leave a distinct impression on your hands. The other knobs featured in the article provided a great mix of complementary styles to our own knobs, and opposite styles, so that there was something for everyone. The Drummonds knobs, replicas of one salvaged from the door of a library in a Victorian estate, may even find that the originals make their way into our own collection at some stage. What a small world!

We only have one final comment for Newsweek – that you can also be dumb as a post, dumb as a doornail and dumb as a dodo!
