⌛History Behind The Piece⌛ Produced during Bakelite’s post-Depression heyday, these phenolic resin pulls embody the transition from heavy metals to decorative plastics in 1930s–1940s interior hardware. Brands such as Catalin Corp. popularised vivid hues and swirled finishes that captured light beautifully, becoming a hallmark of Art Deco design and enduring through mid-century cabinetry aesthetics.
