I have an old bureau whose drawer pulls have broken and I'm looking
for something either similar or a recreation of what I have.

I haven't had much luck finding drop bail pulls that are 6"long (6"
boring) and I was wondering if anyone knew where I might find this? Or
who I might speak to about recreating something like this??

Here's a picture of my pull:

There are several casters on our newsgroup who could reproduce this in
a variety of metals. Silicon bronze would look good, but finishes can
be applied to other metals. The group is he

to see if they had something like my pulls.

Anyone else know of good places to contact/check out?

Holy Sh*t, Batman! Who casts those little brass sash lifts?
The CEO? $25 for a 1" x 1" x 1/8" thick brass window part?
$56 for a Craftsman-style drawer pull? thud

Of course, the tansu hdw from http://www.chisler.net/ is
similarly (exhorbitantly) priced. (Are most of us in the
wrong business?)

They'll have them. No doubt. I picked up a nice 1910 vintage cabinet
Victrola some years ago, missing two hinges. I pulled one of the remaining
hinges and took it to Hippo. The guy at the counter barely blinked and said,
"How many would you like?" Not reproductions, but originals. If you're
in/near Portland, OR, Hippo is a must see. The browsing there is great.

Try some of these (mostly expensive) places:

www.hortonbrass.com
www.leevalley.com
www.constantines.com
http://antiquehardware.com/custom/custom.html

(Disclaimer: I've dealt only with LV and Constantines and was
happy with both. No connection other than being a customer.)

As I understand it..and I know people who have been there, they have
the worlds largest selection of original hardware of this kind in the
world. They have buyers who do nothing but travel around buying old
hardware. Ive not heard if they do repros or not.

So Id have to say they think they can charge for exact replacement.
Shrug..nothing in there that I want.

Rockler Hardware has a lot of old-style cabinet hardware,

but it is another place to look.

Do a web search for a company called Restoration Supply or Restoration
Hardware. They sell all sorts of stuff of this type.
