Notting Hill

Notting Hill figurative period cabinet hardware

Notting Hill Decorative Hardware works under the motto "The Beauty Is In The Details," and the details are usually literal: hand-set semi-precious stones, enamel inlays, and hand-painting applied to pewter and bronze hardware cast at a fine-arts foundry in southeast Wisconsin. The catalog has grown from twelve original knobs in 1996 to more than 200 designs across Arts and Crafts, Victorian, Tropical, Beach, Vineyard, and Lodge & Nature traditions. Production is made-to-order; expect roughly 1-4 weeks from order to door depending on the piece and the finish work involved.

Signature themed collections

The Arts and Crafts collection covers Mission, Craftsman, and Stickley-era cabinetry with hammered surfaces, square profiles, and oak-leaf motifs. The Tropical and Beach collections cover coastal homes and vacation properties with shells, fish, palm fronds, and beach grass. The Vineyard collection is built for wine cellars and wine-country kitchens, with grape, leaf, and barrel-stave detailing. Classic covers Victorian and traditional formal references. Lodge & Nature covers cabin and mountain homes with bear, deer, antler, and pinecone motifs.

How the work is made

Hardware is hand-cast in pewter and bronze. Stones and enamel are set or painted into specific designs after casting. Because each piece is finished individually, small variation between pieces in the same SKU is expected. The 200+ design catalog is unusual for a single artisan brand at this scale of detail.

When Notting Hill fits a kitchen

Choose this brand for themed homes: lake house, beach house, wine cellar, Arts and Crafts bungalow, cabin, Victorian. The catalog is a poor fit for modern minimalism or generic transitional spec work. It is the right answer when a buyer wants the cabinet hardware itself to tell a story about the room. Plan a single theme per kitchen rather than mixing. A vine pull and a shell pull in the same room competes rather than coordinates.
