Question by myfavouritelucy: Where can I find some replacement knobs for a victorian chest of drawers?
I have a lovely mahogany chest of drawers, but 2 of the knobs have been lost. I have googled every mix of victorian – knobs – antique – etc but just keep coming up with modern stuff. I’m sure that there are places that keep these items when reclaiming furniture or refurbishing stuff.. I just have a mental picture of a workshop somewhere that has boxes of these things ready for a piece of furniture in need of restoration. North Wales would be good too.

Usually antique stores have knobs you can buy. I would try that.

    Try Lehman’s Hardware in Kidron, Ohio has a lot of older style items because they cater to the Amish community there. They have a web site and do mail order.
