A COLLECTION OF DOOR RELATED ITEMS

1970s EA/NL/0117

A front door can tell you many things about its owner. Are they rich or poor, neat or messy, classy, or tacky? Whatever you are, the store which had this frame on display had an identity for you in brass. The simplest of keyholes next to a bombastic metal rose gives away the diversity of the neighbourhood: a neighbourhood where the minimalists lived next to the maximalists, and where everyone chose their hinges and locks with care.
