The Tofani doors were made in the first half of the 20th century, in the Colonial Revival style. Tofani doors are distinct paneled wood doors with beveled glass panes, etched at the center of each is a starburst design. A single dot with rays of light emanating from the centerpoint. There are several different shapes of window – a keyhole, a porthole, a heart, or a square with a curved-top. The glass was purchased from the H. Perilstein Glass Company.
