Artful handles

While out and about today I noticed these great brass & glass door handles on the soon to open new J. Crew store at the former Georgetown Park mall. Aren't they terrific? I'm just loving these doors with glass and brass combination. As a side note; I'm very excited about this new development near my office which will include some great lunch time diversions!

I am dreaming of amethyst doorknobs these days –– a flash of purple as you enter and leave a room.; April 14, 2013 at 8:27 AM

David is off to Gettysburg, Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville for a few days but I'm not coming this time. Sad... :)
