Edgar Berebi Ellington Collection

Edgar Berebi Ellington Collection cabinet hardware

The Edgar Berebi Ellington Collection is the brand's Jazz Age Art Deco family. The collection takes its name from the Duke Ellington big-band tradition and translates that late-1920s decorative vocabulary into hardware: stepped Deco geometry along the bail backs, fan-shaped medallions on the knob faces drawn from theater and nightclub interiors, and the symmetrical balance that anchored American Deco interiors. The line sits in the Berebi catalog as the explicit Deco line, distinct from the brand's classical and traditional families. Each piece is hand-finished in the United States and built per order; expect 6-8 weeks from order to door.

Where Ellington fits

The line works on Art Deco-revival kitchens and baths, on period-restoration cabinetry in late-1920s and 1930s homes, on libraries reaching for Jazz Age literary or musical reference, and on powder rooms reaching for explicit Deco character. Painted inset cabinetry in cream, ivory, sage, and pale celadon gives the line the right backdrop. Stained walnut and rosewood millwork pair with the polished-nickel finishes for full Deco effect.

Specifying within the line

Ellington covers cabinet knobs, bail pulls, and matching backplates in coordinated scales. Polished nickel and museum-grade silver read most period-truthful for Deco; museum-grade gold warms the same shapes toward Hollywood Regency. The fan and stepped-geometry ornament rewards close-range viewing, so the line works hardest where buyers will see the hardware up close. Optional Swarovski crystal accents available on selected pieces. The 6-8 week made-to-order schedule is the practical constraint.
