More metal work but not original.

I don't know if these were original or not but there were several of 'em up high on the marble walls in the lobby.

Isn't it neat that they carried the outside stonework design in to the elevator doors and the light fixtures.
My husband usually gives me a tough time for taking pictures of architechial (spelling) interest but when I think of someone designing it, someone executing the design and it lasting for centuries, I for one am impressed.
We just don't have these craftsmen any more.
Thank you so much for being a woman after my own heart and posting your pics. Carol
