I need 4-6 pairs of door handle rosettes
We have enough of the porcelain door knobs for all doors but are missing some of the matching rosettes. I remember at the original Brownstoner fair there was a stand (I believe from FG) with some new brass rosettes designed to work with old handles but I lost their card. Any suggestions on the best place to look?

PS I also need to get new latches for inside the doors that will work with a standard square cross section pin that runs between handles. Have seen cheap ones at hardware stores but am not sure if/where I should look elsewhere for better ones...

Google Search for "Antique Hardware" and also don't forget Ebay.
I have always found it easier (and many times less expensive) to purchase these types of items via mail order.
