This past weekend I was visiting a friend in her small town and we went into a vintage store that specialized in furniture. As we wandered the store I could not help but notice all the fantastic drawer pulls on the dressers (seen below).

  1. I would be interested in purchasing some of these striped bakelite handles.
    Can you give details of dimensions?

    • Hi There,

      I’m not personally selling the drawer pulls, some of them are for sale on Etsy (click on the images where the source says “Etsy”). Just click on the image to be taken to the page. The post is older though so some of theme are sold now. Other images are just sourced images from the web and are not for sale. Sorry for any confusion.

      Liz
