Antique drawer pulls are my personal favourite when it comes to give a touch of elegance to the house. They can add a classic yet chic look with a great texture to your home. Antique drawer pulls are suitable to use with antique furniture and can be as well used for kitchen and bathroom cabinets or table drawers. The variety offered in them is extensive and it is not just one look, shape, design or metal but there is huge collection that can easily spice the look of your home.

Antique drawer pulls are loved by a majority of population as they bring in an air of times past and yet give a modern look to the ambience with a pinch of affluence. These pulls come in different styles that include knobs, hood or bin pull, ring-and-drop pull and handles made available for cabinets as well as furniture and side-drawers. You can choose a design and style from your favourite era to choose your preferences best to a decorative flair to your house.

Classified according to their era each antique piece will have different features and attributes. For e.g. the figural antique drawer pulls have figures designed on their highly decorative back plate. These figures are mostly the head of a serpent, lion, angel, dragon, angel, or other figures mostly of creatures surrounded by scrolled patterns that extend to form the handle which hangs from the back plate. The ones in the Victorian era have a distinguished feature of teardrops with round brass back plates with a ball-and-post fitting by which a black wooden knob hangs as the pull. The use of these antique drawer pulls is not limited only to traditional furniture but these can also be used to create a sharp contrast with modern-day furniture and cabinetry.
