Pair of Solid Brass Door Pulls with Thumb Latches | Art Deco / Streamline Moderne | 12.5"
The first thing someone touches when entering a remarkable building is often the door pull—and few make a stronger first impression than these.
Crafted in solid brass with beautifully sculpted, tapered forms, this matching pair of architectural door pulls embodies the clean, confident lines of the Art Deco and Streamline Moderne eras. Their generous 12.5-inch height and substantial weight immediately distinguish them from the more commonly encountered examples, giving them a presence that feels equally at home on a historic commercial building, luxury residence, boutique hotel or designer renovation.
Each pull incorporates its original thumb latch, allowing the hardware to function as intended while showcasing the thoughtful engineering and craftsmanship of the period. Decades of use have left behind a rich, untouched brass patina that simply cannot be replicated.
Whether installed on a set of grand entrance doors or displayed as architectural art, these pulls celebrate an era when even functional hardware was designed to be beautiful.

Why We Love Them

Their sculptural profile is understated yet memorable—proof that exceptional design often begins with the smallest details.
