Too Much Choice

We need door and window handles and the selection in the big DIY stores is very limited.

So we went back to the carpenter and asked where he got the interesting hinges he had fitted.

He showed us his catalogues and the choice is HUGE.

We visited his workshop on a day when the temperature was 30 plus and it was impossible to think straight. So we left and I've found a handles website with 25 pages of choices: plain, ornate, modern, traditional; handles, knobs and something in-between; with key holes or without; with back plates or without; "L" holes or eurocylinder holes; in solid brass hammered or polished varnished brass hammered or black hammered or rusted polished hammered or old hammered brass or antique hammered iron.

I now can't decide!
