The jewel-like enameled drawer pull hardwares of the original Seymour desk were manufactured in Bilston, England.
However the company does not make them anymore, and I could not find any source for them.
I decided to make them by myself.
Brock Jobe, a professor of the Winterthur Museum, kindly sent the images of the drawer pulls of the original Semour desk at my request.
I made plaster domes, and made fake enamel paintings by decoupaging the images on the plaster domes.
Joan Parcher made brass hardware for the drawer pulls for me.
Everyone, including Lance, was very delighted to see this beautiful reproduction of the drawer hardwares.
