Just one unusual door from the old town, Paphos, Cyprus this week.
I need new doors for my house here, so I’m starting a project to have some traditional Cypriot doors copied for a porch extension.
This involves hunting down examples and I haven’t managed to get too far with it yet.
Watch this space for next week, I would love some comments from Thursday Door lovers please, once I start my project.
During a quick recce in the old town, I came across this ironwork door, probably from the 1950’s. It’s nice to see it has been kept so well. Often they are in disrepair. I will not be looking at this style for my house, so it’s a little door post of its own for this week as it’s rather cute.
Linking with Thursday Doors…
Oh, I LOVE that door and the window above it!

It is truly unique and quite the “art” door!
I am. Not sure I would want it either – but did make s great stand alone post!
I wonder what folks thought when it was new and hot off the production line (or custom shop) – did folks walk by and admire it – and do folks now walk by and just s think – old and just there and nice…. and then some take a photo for an international door share – like you –

I think it’s probably unappreciated, it’s on an odd side street in Old Town, you wouldn’t notice it unless you were WordPressing Thursday Doors… !

Thanks, Norm, it was a nice find but not for my house. I’m in an old traditional village property so I’m-a-hunting now, Thursday Doors maybe my sounding ground once I gather some samples… a new slant on the weekly door posts… please help me choose my dream door, all our door lovers!!!

I like it a lot, although I might not want it for my house (when we again own our own.) Good luck with yours.

Yes, Janet, I love it but it won’t suit my house, the style isn’t right, but it was worthy of a post as it’s just so unusual…Thanks for passing a comment!
