Beaded Panel Octagon Newel Post

This a nice example of a Beaded Panel Octagon Newel Post and a Rail Cap

leading up to a twisted 180 turn at the top of the 2nd floor balcony

 
                       Close up this post shows just how much detail and craftsmanship
                        went into creating  work of art.

Twisted Free Standing

Nice 180 Twists

An Octagon Newel Post and Rail Cap start off this very nice handrail system as it twists and turns up 3 stories.

You can see examples of a few different twist
fittings used together to make the necessary turns to follow over the stairs and balconies.

The picture on the right is a 180 Rake to Rake twist is a combination of 2 pieces joined in the center over what looks like a 10" cylinder well hole.

The Octagon Newel Post is unique in itself
where the flat panel sides have a large cove grooved down the center of each panel.

I really like the finial turned and installed on the top of the rail cap, it adds a great touch of detail.















  I like the scalloped trim under the landing tread and how it matches the stair brackets

                     

The picture above is a great example of 2 twist fittings used to make up the transition from rake rail up to the level balcony.

The joint will be in the center of the 180 turn and the height difference is made up with both fittings.

Incredible Twisted Handrail

Incredible stair and handrail design, Both Hand Open stair will Flared and Swelled Treads. Long and flowing rails lead to matching Twisted Volutes. Balusters are turned to flow with the handrail and wrap with the volute.

Well designed staircase and bullnose allows these long flowing Twisted Volutes to be installed

creating a great entrance to this staircase .

The wide Twisted 180 Transition twists around to the upper stairs and on to the 2nd floor  hallway and balcony.

The hallway balcony gives a great view of the stairs below and the smooth graceful lines of a Twisted Handrail system.
