Newel is one of the greatest resources in our industry. The collection is encyclopedic and spans the history of decorative arts, making sourcing effortless. Perhaps Newel’s finesest resource is Jake Baer, who’s knowledge of the collection, sharp eye, and gracious personality makes work a great pleasure. I love working with Jake and Newel!
