In Search of Old Dresser Drawer Pull

Hi,

I've been dragging this old childhood dresser around with me for 45 years since I moved out of my parent's house. I now have some time where I would like to try and refurbish this. Any ideas as to where I might be able to find a replacement pull (plastic portion)?

 

Welcome, MSchneider! Unfortunately your pictures are totally out of focus. Have you tried to upload them directly here rather than from PB?

 

Ebay or Etsy have a bunch of different styles. I found this lot with a quick search:

The person in the above listing says they would be willing to sell 2 at a time also. Might be worth asking.

Try some of those keywords yourself and see what you turn up.

Thanks all for the help. I didn't know what to call those. I'll check it out.

 

They are celluloid but showed up in a search for bakelite. Most sellers don't know or care about the difference.

 

If the handles posted are all sold out, you could also try searching out a fimo clay artist to duplicate one for you! Fimo clay (artist’s bake-able polymer clay) is amazing, it can be made to look like just about any material. I bet a skilled clay artist would love the challenge.
