Art Deco cabinet handle in hammered and patinated brass
This Art Deco cabinet handle is defined by a graphic composition built around two superimposed rectangular plates. The design relies on a slight offset between the two elements: a textured plate in hammered brass with an aged gold finish and a smooth plate in gunmetal-patinated brass. This offset creates a subtle relief and emphasizes the elongated silhouette of the handle.
Composition and volumes of the cabinet handle
The hammered plate forms the main visible surface, while the darker plate appears slightly set back. This superposition creates a two-layer reading that structures the handle visually. Clean lines and simple geometry recall the aesthetic of Art Deco compositions, where volumes and contrasts contribute to the balance of the design.
Hammered surface with shagreen effect
The brass surface features a dense hammering composed of small, regular circular marks. This texture evokes a shagreen effect and catches the light subtly, revealing the tonal nuances of the aged gold patina.
Handcrafted production in the Atelier Landon workshops
Each cabinet handle is made in solid brass using traditional artisanal techniques. The hammering of the surface, the shaping of the plates, and the application of the patinas are carried out by hand in order to preserve the precision of the textures and the quality of the finishes.
Installation and use of the handle
With its dimensions of 13 × 4 cm, this Art Deco cabinet handle can be installed on drawers, cupboards, sideboards, or integrated furniture fronts. The through-bolt mounting ensures a stable and durable installation suited for everyday use.
Maintenance
To preserve the appearance of the Art Deco cabinet handle, it is recommended to clean the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Abrasive or chemical products should be avoided in order to protect the brass patina.
Brass is a living material, and the finish may evolve slightly over time. These natural variations contribute to the character of the material and the richness of its appearance.
