Hello Router Folk

I never thought I'd find myself here, but its a pretty cool place.

Anyway, I'm looking for the earliest example of in-frame cut out handle with inset door... there are a lot out there now, and the design feels very mid-century.
I thought you guys might know.

Thanks
Nik

do you think you could change your listed 1st name from N/A??? (look to the far left of your post)...

 

[Nik Daughtry]

Mid (40s - 60s) maybe.

Not exactly what you're looking for, but I think you'll find examples in Danish furniture...mid 20th century.

Nik the example you show just looks like an inset in the fame so that you can stick your finger in and hook the drawer bottom. Is there a particular reason you are drawn to this design?

Nik,Maybe you can find one here.
