About This Item

set of matching original c. 1905-15 american interior residential oak wood swinging doors attributed to frank lloyd wright. the two matching swinging doors (four in total) contain visually striking chicago prairie style or “wrightesque” leaded art glass windows. the art glass panes feature a strongly geometric pattern containing a simple white opalescent glass border surrounding clear glass panes. the center portion has lightly tinted, seeded glass possibly manufactured by the kokomo opalescent glass company. the top and bottom of each pane contains remarkable double-crown caming with unique metallic gold “sandwich” glass panels. the windows were likely executed by the linden glass company chicago, il. the two recessed panel oak doors retain original large rectangular brass push pates and flush mount door bolts. there are a total of four doors or two sets (i.e., double swinging door) available. the original darkly stained finish with allover crazing is mostly uniform and largely intact. the doors were acquired from a prominent chicago collector and architect. we were told the doors were salvaged approximately 30 years ago from an oak park frank lloyd wright-designed house. research pertaining to the exact commission is still ongoing. each door measure 83 1/4 x 24 inches. priced for the pair.
