The colors of our handles

A range groups several finishes that share the same dominant tone. The Brown range, for example, brings together bronze patinas, dark lacquers, and certain pigmented resins. It’s a shorthand for finding a shade without browsing every finish one by one. Open a range’s page to see all the finished handles that belong to it.

Each finish produces its color through its own process: patina for metals, colored lacquer for smooth surfaces, mass pigmentation for the bioresin. The hue is not painted on top, it emerges from the finishing work itself. That's what gives it a depth a simple coat of paint doesn't have. Open a finish page in the range to see the detail of its rendering.

No, each finish interprets the range in its own way. A patinated one softens it, a glossy one amplifies it, a matte one melts it. The same range can therefore read warmer or cooler depending on the finish chosen, and that is where its richness lies. To decide, open the finishes of a range and compare them side by side.

Not systematically. A collection depends on the finishes that carry it, and each finish is not available on every shape. Color follows the finish, which itself follows the collection the silhouette belongs to. Open the page for the collection you’re interested in: you’ll find every handle that’s actually available in that shade there.

Yes, and it depends on the finish carrying it. Colored lacquers and bioresin, pigmented throughout, keep a stable shade. Metal patinas evolve by nature, very slowly, held in check by the protective treatment applied in the atelier: that's their character, not a flaw. For the precise behavior of a shade, open the page for the finish in question.

It all depends on the character you're after. Brown and Silver Gray remain the safe choices: they work with everything and age well. Gold Yellow and Black make more of a statement, for a kitchen that owns its choice. One thing to avoid on fronts heavily exposed to splashes: bold colored lacquers, which scratch more easily than metals. For matching the cabinet itself, also see how to choose a color based on the front.

Each handle is made to order in our Paris atelier. Allow an average of 5 to 10 business days for production, plus the carrier's delivery time, which varies by address. You'll receive an email with the tracking number as soon as the shipping label is issued, generally between the 5th and 10th business day after your order.

We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express) via Stripe, as well as PayPal. Transactions run through these two international references in online payment: Holdon Paris never sees and never stores your card number, all sensitive data is transmitted encrypted to the platform. The site runs entirely on HTTPS. For large professional orders, bank transfer with a deposit is possible (see architects and professionals).

Yes. French law gives you 14 days from receipt to exercise your right of withdrawal, with no need to justify it. The handles must be returned in their original condition, uninstalled, and return shipping is at your expense unless the error is ours: the refund is issued within 14 days of receipt at our workshop. To start a return, write to us via contact Holdon Paris: we'll send you the address and the process. Custom and personalized pieces are not eligible for the right of withdrawal, since they are made specifically for you.
