Reader request - brass and gold

I haven't done a reader request in ages, because I don't seem to ever have enough time to rifle through my photo stash anymore (I have 2 days off work hence my ability to magically find a bit of time now). I think these started getting more difficult when Jo and I each started trying to blog twice a day and then I went and started this blog with my sister. Anyway, feel free to continue sending requests but try and make it reeeeeeally interesting and something that can be easily spotted in a tiny thumbnail to increase your chances of me getting to it. :)

SO, today's request comes from Christi: I'm a design student from BC, and I'd love to see some blog posts with brass and gold contemporary hardware and fixtures. I'm obsessed with the few I've seen, and I think the contrast with cooler paint and material tones is stunning. I was never a fan of anything gold, but I am slowly coming around. I still shy away from using it as silver seems to be so much easier. This one was a bit tough to find in my tiny Flickr thumbnails but I think I scored some decent photos, and because I have a thing for copper - particularly Tom Dixon's copper shade lights - I took this opportunity to slide a couple in. :)
