Hello, I am wondering if anyone has a resource for Nelson thin-edge-type White Hourglass pulls. I found one retailer who blatantly (an apparently unashamedly) knocks off these cabinets and their pulls and sells them for a premium, so much so that you could get a nice vintage example for a comparable price...but I'm beginning to rant. Any ideas?
Thanks!
Try this guy
This ebay seller has had some vintage pulls in the past. Don't know if he has any left, but you could contact him and ask. I've dealt with him before and he's a great guy.
If he does not have any left, your best bet would be to watch ebay and see if any more pop up. Or maybe a thrashed piece of thin-edge that could be bought cheap for the hardware?
Good luck in your search.
If anyone has a set of aluminum thin-edge legs or know where I could get a set we need some for a vintage cabinet.

D'oh!
I just looked to see which pulls woodywood mentioned were currently being offered and it's the same seller I refered you to.
Those black pulls are sharp also, and much less common than the white hourglass pulls. But I assumed that you were looking to replace one or two. How many are you looking for, and are they going on a piece of thin-edge or something else entirely?
Actually...
they are gong on a few pieces we bought from Room and Board so Vintage ones aren't QUITE what I am after in this case. I noticed at an auction recently though that some of the original pulls were threaded, like MALE threaded and actually BORED INTO the wood itself because one of the pulls this particular thin-edge cabinet had "come out" and a repair looked tricky at best.
The pieces we bought from Room and Board LOOK period and I thought they would look even better with white pulls. I may just end up getting 1" diameter porcelain pulls from an online retailer and leave the Vintage ones for someone restoring an actual thin-edge cabinet.
