<p>[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 547339, member: 5066"]Generally speaking, original hardware is a big deal to old furniture collectors because it is rare. It does not reduce the value like say a structural repair does but collectors are ALWAYS mindful about hardware on old pieces. It's just nicer to have the original brass pulls & is an indication the piece has escaped without anyone messing around with it to much.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
