For some of us, the name Schwinn conjures up images of bicycles… Classic red enamel chassis…leather seat…leather grips…coaster brakes…..
According to SCHWINN Hardware, the two companies share a name and place of origin and there the affiliation ends. Both founding fathers hailed from Germany. Ignaz Schwinn, family and bicycle manufacturer, was born in 1860 and arrived Stateside 35 years later to open Arnold, Schwinn & Company here in Chicago, Illinois. Peter Schwinn, founder and decorative hardware manufacturer, would open his furniture company in Germany in 1932.
And decorative hardware is what we here at IRONMONGER are all about !

FROST Designs Presents Les Miroirs Noirs and More
FROST continues to delight us with their ever-expanding repertoire of products and finishes.
This time they enchant us with the magic of ‘black.’
The stage is set….
In this mise en scène, the UNU Mirrors appear poised yet nonchalant. They command our attention. The NOVA Candlestick and the NOVA Soap Dispenser sit back in repose awaiting their turn to shine. And while all are draped in black, it’s the expanse of the UNU Wash Table that shows just how lovely this powder coated finish can be.
And as the drama unfolds, the candle flickers….
This is just another part of the Story.
We recently sent out a literature packet that featured the photo above. If you’re one of the lucky few who received that packet and you just want the specs on the items shown, click here.

The FROST ORIGINAL COPPER Series Is Here !
FROST Original Copper Series
FROST has big news – and we’re excited to share it with you !
IRONMONGER proudly presents the FROST ORIGINAL COPPER Series making its worldwide debut and creating quite a stir in the US Market. It’s the first of its kind ! The FROST COPPER RANGE 2015 – a coordinated series of product accessories produced in this fabulous burnished metal finish.
Spurred by the interest generated from the introduction of the award winning busk+hertzog designed Camouflage in copper, founder Hans Jørgen Frost once again seized the opportunity to do what hadn’t been done before. And from this groundswell, Hans derived the inspiration for what he deemed “THE MODERN TAKE ON A CLASSIC FINISH”.
The FROST ORIGINAL COPPER Series has a light PVD coating for increased durability. This also helps to prevent a patina from forming. To remove smudges or fingerprints, simply wipe clean with a dry cloth.
And don’t be fooled into thinking that copper is just a fad. It isn’t ! This resilient metal dates back to ancient civilization. In addition to the majesty of its bright auburn hue, copper has natural antimicrobial properties, resists corrosion, and is 100% recyclable.
Frost Copper Wishbone & Mini Camouflage
So c’mon… What are you waiting for? Just peek inside the
FROST ORIGINAL COPPER Series booklet and you’ll find many of FROST’s ‘classic’ designs, all splendidly rendered in this wonderful finish.

The Truth About Linnea’s Inspiration
Linnea LLC thrives on inspiration. With its roots in America’s Pacific Northwest region, this company designs building products whose squared edges appear sharp by design. Contrast that to the delicate structure of Linnaea Borealis(twinflower) whose pretty pink and white twin bells dangle from a slender Y-shaped stem. However, don’t be deceived. Like the beautiful Linnaea twinflower, this manufacturer and namesake has duality at its core – ‘clean lines & solid construction,’ ‘refined form & reliable function’ – which allows a two-pronged approach in the design and creation of their Stainless Steel and Solid Brass hardware.
Established in 2003, Linnea Inspirational Hardware has been specified in residential and commercial projects around the world. While 316-grade Stainless Steel (satin as well as polished) is their signature finish, they also offer 304-grade Stainless Steel, Brushed Nickel, Polished Chrome and two new finishes: Custom e-coat and Custom Powdercoat.
Check out Linnea LLC where you’ll find building products for every room in your home. From levers & locks for all your doors; cabinet pulls & knobs for the kitchen; shower pulls & toothbrush holders for the bathroom; to door stops that mount on either the wall or the floor. You’ll also find hinges, house numbers, hand rail brackets and more.
Linnea Inspirational Hardware providing “innovative designs to last a lifetime.”

What’s So Iconic About d line
Iconic Interior designed by Arne Jacobsen
An icon is an object of uncritical devotion. A cultural icon builds on this definition by virtue of its significance, status and impact on society. Arne Jacobsen, Danish architect and designer, is one such icon whose designs enjoy worldwide recognition and acclaim.
Through partnership with Danish manufacturer Carl F, Jacobsen designed the AJ Lever handle for the SAS Royal Hotel Copenhagen in 1961.
“For Carl F this meeting constituted the beginning of an iconic collection of beautifully designed lever handles….” Partnering with leading architects and some of the design world’s most creative minds, d line moves the tradition forward presenting IKONS, handles available in Stainless Steel, Brass, and Wood “sealed” with a thin PU lacquer.
As befits a premier innovator in the design and manufacture of modern European architectural hardware, d line opens the IKONS series with Arne Jacobsen’s eponymous lever, an ergonomic design inspired and shaped by his palm gripping a lever handle. This Carl F Lever handles collection includes several other classic yet unique European designs.
Featured alongside Arne Jacobsen, you’ll find this stunning Collective of Collaborative Partners: PLH Architects, Jean Nouvel, AARSTIDERNE Architects, schmidt hammer lassen design, Annelise Bjørner, ONEN, VILHELM LAURITZEN Architects, CUBO, and HENNING LARSEN Architects.
C’mon take a peek inside this d line IKONS catalogue… And see how beautiful a lever can be !
