Metalwork : Wrought iron decorative hardware

We recognize, in the smallest details, that a cabinet has the dignity to be called a quality antique reproduction. In giving the old finishing effect, it is possible to simulate the deterioration caused by the passage of time and create a soul to each and every one of our pieces.

But this would be nothing without the wrought iron decorative hardware, typical of the Canadian French antique furniture. Regardless of the antique fitting looked for, we have something to replace it.

We invite you to visit our Workshop’s online store

to find the hammered ironwork such as: surface locks, locks, handles, latches, butterfly hinges, hooks, couplets, cremones and rattail hinges .

To make the most authentic French Canadian furniture reproduction, we use a hammered ironwork in a rustic and hammered style period.

We also offer a traditional-style hardware and locks. 

The fitting of a cabinet represent yesterdays’ authentic wooden furniture. The wood pine knobs have a rustic look and  they will be handmade.

For wood  lovers, the online store is full of technical and practical information!

When a reproduction is a success, it is not unusual to contemplate it and get caught guessing its history from its patina. The result is so convincing that its realism will wow you. We can then imagine that this antique piece of furniture have had many happy years.   The marks judiciously displayed on the cabinet would basically be the wrinkles left by time and the various uses made with this piece of furniture.
