Designs of Distinction Knurled Brass Foot Rail Kits

Designs of Distinction (DOD) has launched Knurled Brass Foot Rail Kits—a sophisticated solution crafted specifically for residential interiors.

Unlike oversized commercial foot rail systems, the new kits feature 1.5-in. diameter tubes and fittings, scaled for home bars, kitchen islands and built-in cabinetry. Soon to be available in 8- and 10-ft. kits, each set includes lacquered polished brass components with a knurled texture engraved directly into solid cast brass for durability and detail.

The inspiration for this new offering stems from the recent visit of Kathy Constantine, DOD brand founder & BWI vice president, to Vibrant Buildcon in India, where she explored artisan casting techniques and brass production. As a result, these foot rail kits are manufactured in India from solid brass, combining old-world craftsmanship with modern design possibilities.

DOD plans to expand the collection with matching knurled components, including slipper cups, bistro shelving fittings, pot rail kits and cabinet and furniture hardware.
