Trend Alert: Standout Hardware That Packs a Punch
File this under If You Can’t Find What You’re Looking For, Create It. Lately we’ve noticed designers, artists, and even jewelers making their own collections of knobs, drawer pulls, and handles that are anything but an afterthought—they’re a statement. Have a look:
MG&Co.
Above: Who wouldn’t be charmed by this Fish Backplate? Shown here in in Blackened Bronze, it’s £15 from Matilda Goad’s MG&Co.
Above: Another from MG & Co.: a pair of Circle Backplates, neatly matched; £42.
Block Shop
Above: Is that a demure oval-shaped cabinet knob? No: It’s a Potato Knob, just one of Block Shop’s whimsical offerings; $55.
Beata Heuman
Above: From It Swedish designer Beata Heuman, the Pigeon Hook is $69. And check out this description: “Though pigeons go unnoticed by many, they hold the quiet confidence of those who have seen the world and returned with stories in their wings. Resilience is not always loud: sometimes it coos softly in the morning hours. And sometimes it holds your towel gracefully.”
Bonnemazou-Cambus
Above: Attention to the backplate turns run-of-the-mill knobs into something stellar. The CLbis00-B00 Cupboard Knobs start at €147 from inventive French hardware company Bonnemazou Cambus.
Above: Another standout from Bonnemazou Cambus, who believes “door handles are one of those objects that you should lovingly carry with you on each of your moves”: The CSS00-PL00 Door Handle is €306.
Maha Alavi
Above: From Maha Alavi in Tokyo, the Bean Knob is inspired by clasped hands; $135 from Claude Home.
Mark Lewis
Above: We’re longstanding fans of designer Mark Lewis, who offers an array of thoughtfully designed hardware and fittings on his site; the Oval Knob in Polished Brass, for example, is £22.50.
Spaces Within
Above: Among the elegant, jewelry-like offerings from Spaces Within in Sweden: the Burly Polished Nickel Pulls, 1,100 SEK.
Hastshilp
Above: From UK-based family business Hastshilp, the Scallop Knobs are $33 each.
