Sleek round metal stair spindles
Add a touch of art deco flair to your stairway with the addition of round metal stair spindles. The darkness of the metal helps to draw attention, while the straight then rounded shape creates an intriguing bannister that guests won't be able to take their eyes off.
What’s more, metal spindles pair really well with natural oak newel posts and handrails, offering a captivating contrast between the two materials.

Ultra-modern glass panels
Looking to spruce up your current decor and modernise your home? Well, you can do exactly this with glass panels for stairs.
Glass panelling has grown in popularity due to its ultra-modern feel and ability to brighten your stairs and landing areas by allowing more natural light to pass through.

White-primed square spindles
