If this were a brooch or one of a set of earrings, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Too bad for me because that's not the case. This fabulous Art Deco ornament is actually a door knob to the front door of an otherwise relatively nondescript Parisian apartment building. I love it.

Oh yes, a fabulous pin. Gorgeous!
Are you on Facebook? If not, email me and I'll send you the group photo from the party. A motley crew! HA
I'll order one of those too! The crew may be motley, but you were not, Anne!
Wish that I had been there...

Thanks, Virginia. I seem to have retained my phantom status, even in your photo. (That's what I get for leaving early.)
Wow what an elegant doorknob!
That is one cool door knob.
This is lovely. Can you give a hint as to where in Paris?, are there more nearby? I am a fool for art deco.
thanks for sharing this find.

Partager Paris: I found this on rue Benjamin Franklin in the 16th (just off Trocadero) when I taking pictures for my Benjamin Franklin birthday post. The building is directly behind the Franklin statue.
There are Art Deco buildings scattered around the Passy area although no specific concentration.
