Orion’s KBlair Finials Wins Platinum Adex Award

Orion Ornamental Iron announced today that KBlair Finials, which it acquired in early 2008, has won the prestigious Platinum ADEX award for Window Treatments for 2009.

“We felt we had a winner when we acquired KBlair Finials last year, so it is especially gratifying for us to win the Platinum ADEX,” said Sunil Patel, CEO of Orion. “KBlair has uniquely innovative designs, offering hand-cut, mouth blown crystal finials and hand-painted wood resin finials, in addition to its distinctive line of Inlay Rods. Everything is custom-made to order in any of our 20 unique KBlair finishes.”

Despite its custom-made nature, because of its increased buying power, Orion has been able to significantly lower the prices on this line. “We are maintaining the same high quality standards in both products and finishing,” added Patel, “but we have worked to lower prices where the line will be available in the moderate price range now instead of high end as it was previously.”


KBlair Finials, which is hand-made in the U.S.A., offers a complete line of custom drapery hardware, including traversing and round rods up to 30 feet in length, an extensive line of crystal and wood resin finials, and also brackets, rings, holdbacks and medallions.

Orion Ornamental Iron offers an extensive line of iron drapery hardware, wood and resin finials, as well as cornices, crowns and scrolls and decorative mirrors.
