Each piece is unique, please place orders complete so variations are consistent. Our pale Spearmint and Wintergreen offer a unique opportunity in pastels, good with a light hand or a sense of humor. European Walnut is the deeper darker wood tones of fine quality European antiques. 3) Polished Aluminum – Derived from the Bauhaus School and Walter Gropius, who founded the international modern movement in Germany is 1919. Bauhaus influenced famous architects such as Mies Van der Rohe, Marcel Breuer, Charles Eames, Eero Saarinen and Isamu Noguchi. Our Modern Collection is a clean distillation of Bauhaus philosophy combining industrial building forms as stylistic influences. Our Aluminum rods are custom milled for The Antique Drapery Rod Company out of 99% PCS (Post Consumer Waste) recycled aluminum with a 1% virgin aluminum coating. Keep recycling your aluminum cans! Antique Drapery Rod’s aluminum hardware is a sleek modern example of “upcycling” (when a product is recycled into a more expensive, better quality product, increasing the recycled material’s basic value).
