tokat doors

looking through old(er) photos- here are some doors from Tokat, Turkey, a fascinating town famous for it's elusive Tokat kebap. We never found the kebap but found some interesting doors (here) and interesting people (to follow)- j

the doors are all so personal and full of life.......
modern approach 

bottom of door behind the hill 

slanted handle for easy grasping

color

texture

a riot of stuff in one corner

spikey handle and green spots

porcelain and string 

well protected

nailheads galore

not a door- wall cladding and fuel

scallop shell and diamond keyhole

using what's around
