Finding The Right Doorknob

Who knew it could be so dang tricky and time consuming?!

I have been scouring the internet looking for doorknobs for our two sets of french doors that will be in the family room. I feel like I should instead be scouring Estate sales, but for today- thats not an option. Here are some of the best options, some realistic, and some not {you'll see why}:


via Home Depot

similar one, with different knob:
Nostalgic Warehouse 704048 Polished Brass Victorian Privacy Knobset from the Victorian Series with Waldorf Knob without Key Hole
via Amazon
Nostalgic Warehouse 704580 Antique Brass New York Privacy Knobset from the New York Series with Homestead Knob and Key Hole
via Amazon

via eBay

Yes, this one is just a lock, and yes it is $270- but how freaking rad would it be?!

Not sure what we are going to end up with, but were for sure thinking antique brass knobs of some sort. They have to have a lock on them as well since they will be leading outside. So,  if any of you genius friends of mine have any bright ideas as to where we should look- please don't be afraid to share your secrets:) Happy weekend!!

  2. I have the last one! I found it at a free reuse center covered in paint, still attached to a beat up door. Brought it home, and cleaned it up stoked to put it on a door. But decided that no door in our home is worthy so it waits patiently in a box. So cool to see the exact same set!

  3. Try Rejuvenation (in Portland) @ rejuvenation.com. They have lots of them, although some are very expensive. Just a thought :)

  5. I am loving the last set! looks vintage, yet modern.... or at least mid century modern! That's my vote. & I have amazing taste. Ha. :)
