Gorgeous.
I visited the texas state caipital in Auatin and noticed all the door hinges had a big texas star.
Wanted the same for my house, but with my monogram.
Art deco design is definitely one of my favourites! If you showed a builder this today they would say you were unhinged for using too much detail. High time preference construction :(
Side note, the Art Deco Jaeger Le Coultre Reverso watch design from the 1930’s still stands tall today:
My God! What's we have allowed ourselves to lose is beyond any reckoning.
That is a thing of beauty.
Wow so intricate.
