I made a complimentary piece of furniture for my SIL. I would like to match the hardware. I have attached an image of the furniture they have. Can some direct me to where this hardware may be?

Have you tried Lee Valley and/or Horton Brass?

You might also try Restoration Hardware.

Have you tried the manufacturer of that piece? In the past I have been able to get "replacement" hardware but these were rather local North Carolina companies. It wasn't the cheapest route but it was exactly the same.

What Van said. Not usually a bargain but they will be an exact match. I have hit the snag of a piece being a decade old or so and the hardware no longer being used by the maker. In this case a "complimentary" rather than an identical hardware was the choice. The "matching" piece was also modified in design to appear "complimentary" instead of trying to appear as another piece from the same collection. This avoided the new piece looking like a family member with the wrong hardware ;-)

van dykes hardware might have it--they are pretty big. perhaps baldwin as well--I think they are more modern...

If it is standard sized hardware, and you need them to match, you may try finding similar hardware and replacing the original hardware to match your new piece.
