Cabinet Handle Classica Arabesque Roaring Lion

Yes. Our handles are made to order in our Paris atelier, which gives us real latitude to go beyond the catalog. We range from custom color to raised initials or a logo, from an exclusive pattern to a numbered series. Custom work remains a separate service, on top of the catalog, priced according to your project. Every request gets its own dedicated quote, which we put together as quickly as possible after your message.

Yes. Initials, a monogram, or a logo are designed into the handle's pattern and then added in relief: they're sculpted onto the master, captured in the mold, and cast with the piece. Nothing is engraved afterward, the relief is one with the handle. The modeling work and mold making are priced in the quote.

For a knob, the existing hole almost always works, it fits the M4 screw. For a pull, check that the gap between the holes matches an available center-to-center. If in doubt, measure center to center and send us the measurement, we'll confirm the right piece for you.

Yes, in the same way. These brands design their fronts to IKEA Metod's dimensions and drilling: Plum, Superfront, Reform, A.S. Helsingö, Holte, and the other workshops making fronts for IKEA cabinets. Installation is identical, free-choice drilling and M4 screws.

Classica Arabesque, Roaring Lion attaches at two points, center-to-center 192mm, 128mm, 160mm. Measure the distance from axis to axis between your two existing holes: if it matches, the handle replaces the old one in just a few minutes. On a blank front, you choose the placement and drill to that measurement. The most common center-to-center measurements for IKEA kitchens are 96 and 128 mm for drawers, 160 mm for larger cabinets.

Yes. IKEA Metod, Pax, and Besta fronts are factory drilled for hinges and drawers, but never for handles: you choose the placement, drill, then fasten with an M4 screw, exactly like an original IKEA handle. Classica Arabesque, Roaring Lion follows this standard, like all our pieces.

Yes. Our Green resin handles pair beautifully with fronts from IKEA's Metod line, styles like Bodbyn, Kallarp, Voxtorp, or Ringhult. These aren't shades strictly matched to the IKEA color chart, but a harmony of tone: depending on the front, the Green either echoes it or answers it with a deliberate contrast. An easy way to personalize a Metod cabinet without repainting a thing.

Yes, always. You receive stainless steel M4 screws in several lengths to cover standard front thicknesses, along with installation instructions. They hold up well to the humidity of a kitchen or bathroom. For a nonstandard front, just ask and we will send you the right length.

The included screws cover standard fronts, roughly 16 to 25 mm thick, which covers nearly every cabinet on the market and most IKEA fronts. For a thicker front, a solid door, or a doubled-up front, all you need is longer screws: just ask and we'll send them. For a very thin front, choose the shortest screw in the bag so it doesn't poke through on the inside.

A drill or driver with a bit suited to your door or drawer front, and a Phillips screwdriver. No specialized tools required. On a thin front, a hand screwdriver is often enough, without even reaching for the drill if the hole already exists.

Center-to-center is the distance from axis to axis between the two screws. For Classica Arabesque, Roaring Lion, it's 192mm, 128mm, 160mm. Transfer this measurement onto the front with a fine pencil, check the alignment with a level, then mark each point with an awl before drilling, which keeps the drill bit from wandering. On an IKEA kitchen, the most common center-to-centers are 96 and 128 mm for drawers, 160 and 192 mm for larger cabinets.

Installation is the same as any cabinet handle: drill the front, secure with the included screws, hand tighten, then finish with a final turn of the screwdriver. It takes just a few minutes per piece. Classica Arabesque, Roaring Lion fits existing furniture as easily as IKEA fronts, and the installation guide is included in the package.

Bioresin is a plant based PLA, with no metal. Here, there's no mold or casting: the piece is 3D printed directly, then hand finished. We sand it, protect the surface, and visually inspect it before packaging. It's the only one of our materials that stays pure print from start to finish.

Yes. 3D printing the master, molding, casting, sanding, and patina: it all happens in our Paris workshop. Our metal powders and resins come from European suppliers, and both assembly and finishing stay French. Every piece is checked by eye in our workshop before it ships.

No. Our metal handles are cast from bronze, copper, brass, or pure aluminum powders, with no added lead, no cadmium, and no mercury. The materials used comply with European RoHS directives restricting hazardous substances. You can install them in a kitchen, a child's room, or a bathroom with no risk of toxic migration.

Classica Arabesque, Roaring Lion 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 depending on your address. An email with the tracking number will reach you as soon as the shipping label is issued.

Yes for metal finishes (bronze, copper, brass, aluminum), which handle household steam very well. Bioresin, more sensitive to prolonged moisture, should be avoided in these situations. On a built-in dishwasher, choose a metal material and wipe the piece down after high-temperature cycles. That is the only thing to remember for a front exposed to steam.

A soft, slightly damp cloth is enough in most cases. For a kitchen handle exposed to greasy buildup, add a drop of mild soap, liquid Marseille soap or diluted dish soap. Then wipe with a dry cloth to avoid streaks. That's all it takes day to day: no specialty product, no complicated routine.

Bioresin, our metal free material, cleans with a damp cloth only, with a touch of mild soap if needed. Avoid alcohol, solvents, and concentrated vinegar, which can damage the matte finish. Also don't expose it to strong, prolonged steam, like above a shower or in a very greasy kitchen. Well cared for, it keeps its soft touch and true colors with no special maintenance.

Yes, on one key point. Metal finishes (bronze, copper, brass, aluminum) tolerate mild cleaners, a bit of diluted vinegar, and even household steam. Bioresin, on the other hand, should only be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap, no alcohol, no solvent, no concentrated vinegar. Day to day care stays simple either way, it's mainly the list of products to avoid that differs. Each product page specifies the exact care for its material.

Yes, always: stainless steel screws sized for standard 18 to 19 mm fronts, in several lengths, plus an installation guide. For a thicker or thinner front, we send the right screws free of charge, just ask.

For metal finishes (bronze, copper, brass, aluminum), yes to both: they hold up very well against household moisture and splashes. Bioresin, on the other hand, is best kept to dry rooms. The one real contraindication, for every material, is outdoor use exposed to the elements.

It's above all a decorative handle. Bioresin is more delicate than our metals: it doesn't hold up well to impact or heavy strain, and we don't recommend it for kitchens or bathrooms. Keep it for dry rooms and gentle use, a bedroom, a closet, a living room, an occasional piece, where it shows to full effect. For a grip used daily, go with a metal finish.

Bioresin: a plant-based material, free of metal, 3D printed then finished by hand. Colored throughout and surface-protected, it delivers bold colors and a soft touch, perfect for a bedroom, closet, or living room. We reserve it for dry spaces: it's not made for a kitchen or a very humid bathroom.
