Our European shutter line mirrors
the architecture and the lifestyles found throughout the regions of
Europe. Their substantial dimensions are strong yet proportion is
not forgotten. All geared to provide you with functional
shutters that have a simple, relaxed elegance that will protect and
adorn your home most graciously.
¨This old place was not so comfy 15 years ago, it was a deserted stable and chickens were roosting in the hay loft. It was so run down there were gaping holes in the roof and you could look up and see the sky from the inside. The shutters are the last project and it will be restored to its original condition, thanks to you folks. You don't know how many people in town ask about your shutters, and even more astonished that they were made in the good old USA.¨ Chièvres, Belgium
Each of these shutter designs has been
faithfully reproduced from originals found in Europe and we will continue to add
to this, our newest line. Should you have a photograph or a sketch of a
particular shutter or door that you have seen during your travels please let us
know. As always we will be happy to work with you to provide you with the
shutters of your dreams.
Our European
Line shutters are for both interior and exterior shutters and doors
and are available in both
1.1/4" and 1.3/4" thickness.
Louver with Kick-out
A shutter
within a shutter. The smaller, inner shutter acts as a bahaman
shutter being hinged at the top. This allows you to prop out the
inner shutter when the shutters are closed over your window. This design can also be used in a door with the kick-out in the upper portion of the door.
Board & Batten with Breadboard
Top
In this
style the individual boards are tenoned at the top and pegged into
mortises in a wooden "breadboard" top rail. When the
shutters are closed the traditional diamonds allow for light to
enter into your home
Fixed Louver over Tongue & Groove
Here the
fixed louvers at the top are both aesthetic and functional. The
louvers act as a decorative cap piece while providing you with light and
ventilation when the shutters are closed.
