The tiniest details can make a grand impression in your home, beginning with the doorknob. As guests enter, a carefully chosen knob sets the tone for what’s to come.

Antique

Victorian antique and reproduction doorknobs suggest luxury. Intricately engraved, they feature finishes from brass and satin nickel to the much desired bronze. A close look into an inverted parasol doorknob, for example, reveals an illustration of a mythological love story and an oval knob captures a carved brass lion.

Glass

Glass doorknobs sparkle like jewelry. Adorn your doors with them and admire their minute, spectacular intricacies. Behind the translucent glass the inner patterns vary from designs of sharp-lined stars to soft-petaled flowers. Their smooth texture and enticing shine will brighten your doors and cabinets.

Contemporary

This metal collection spotlights a variety of clean-lined hardware. Satin chrome and nickel levers are timeless and simple, or for a playful design, Manhandles feature the human form fashioned into a functional pull. A stainless steel pull inlaid with cork brings natural elements into the mix.

Earthy

Finish your space with earth tones. The accent of a deep sepia colored Arts and Crafts style knob brings the outdoors in. Capture the feel of a quiet beach with the pebble textured knobs crafted entirely from recycled glass. Their organic imperfections make each one a little different. Spruce, moss, fern, pond, cedar – let nature’s hues color your home.
