| House built in 1951. So past the glass doorknob era. But I think they are pretty but worry they might not fit asthetically or will look out of place. What say you DCuM? |
| * glass doorknobs |
| Yes - keep original details. |
| Love them if they are working properly |
| Is is it a Victorian or a Colonial built in 1951? If so yes! If it’s a modern house I think you could do round glass. |
| We have the Baldwin Crystal Reserve Knobs. Love them! |
| Whatever makes you happy. Keep whatever you remove if you want to swap back to vanilla/unoffensive when you sell |
| I like them. |
| I love them. And while you're right about the timing, it isn't like as soon as the year count passed 19xx that everyone ran around replacing their glass doorknobs with something different. You lived with what you had. Same here. Wash them up so they're clear, bright and shiny, and love them! |

Love them. I have a Victorian and hope to put them in some day. I grew up in an old house that had them.
I prefer the smooth round ones not the cut glass ones. |

Okay, so these are not glass but they are super cool. I was looking at Home & Design today and saw this use of round door knobs. Look up at the very top of the built in. Those round knobs are wooden dresser knobs painted in the same color as the woodwork.
Not trying to highjack your thread, OP, just in love with this idea!!! Hope the link works.

| I love glass doorknobs! |
| I find them depressing. |
If it helps to balance the universe, the idea of someone finding glass doorknobs depressing made me lol. |
| My house has the original glass doorknobs and I love them. |
