One-Of-A-Kind

This section is filled with my signature books. They all incorporate antique hardware pieces, either as mere decoration, or as part of the closure mechanism. Please read the descriptions of each individual book to learn the history behind the work! I encourage you to click on each book you like before you select “Buy Now”…that will pull up a larger photo. You can sometimes see detail photos here of the hardware or color variations also. This is often very helpful since it is difficult to see these details in the thumbnail photos!
