Cabinet Knob Classica Round

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.

The silhouette alone, with no pattern at all: the form in its purest geometry. This isn't a handle missing something, it's a choice, the most understated version in the line, the one you repeat without hesitation across everyday drawers.

On a patterned handle, an ornament (a rosette, a lion, a scrollwork) dresses the silhouette. The Essential strips away that ornament to keep only the form: its proportions, its edges, its play of shadow. Same silhouette, two intentions, one speaks loudly, the other makes room.

A real option, and a deliberate one. Removing the pattern is a choice in restraint: on certain silhouettes the form speaks for itself, and on a piece of furniture that's already busy, it's what lets everything else exist without clutter. It's the foundation of a composition, not a catalog filler.

On anything that repeats: a full kitchen, a dresser, a run of drawers, a closet. It's the handle you can multiply without fear of overloading the space, and it serves as a backdrop when you want to reserve the accent (a statuary piece, a bold pattern) for a single front.

Yes, that's its natural territory. Keep the same silhouette, the same material, and the same finish throughout, and the harmony comes on its own. Many projects use the Essential everywhere and save a more expressive handle for the one piece that's meant to stand out.

Yes. Like Statuary, Essential doesn't belong to any particular collection: it's a base available everywhere, on every silhouette, regardless of collection.

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.

One hole, one M4 screw: it's the simplest install there is. Drill at the spot you want on your IKEA front (Metod, Malm, Kallax, Hemnes) and screw it in. No center-to-center to measure, since a knob only has one mounting point.

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 Round follows this standard, like all our pieces.

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.

One hole, one M4 screw: it's the simplest mounting there is. You mark the spot, drill, then screw Classica Round in from the inside of the front. There's no center-to-center to measure, since a knob has only one fixing point, making it compatible with almost any existing drilling.

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 Round fits existing furniture as easily as IKEA fronts, and the installation guide is included in the package.

On all of our silhouettes: round knobs, square knobs, columns, and the rest of the line. The Essential isn't a shape in itself, it's the barest way to carry any of our forms, from the simple knob to the center-to-center pull.

Yes, in both families: as a knob (one fixing point) for small drawers and doors, as a c/c pull (two points) for wider fronts. It's the silhouette and size that decide, not the choice of the Essential.

Yes, without exception, from bronze to bioresin, in every color in the line. Since no pattern draws the eye, material and finish become the only subject: that's where the character of the piece is decided.

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.

It all depends on the finish. Patinated finishes, like Antique Bronze or Antique Copper, are alive: they keep evolving gently, and that's their whole appeal. Matte, glossy, or color finishes, like Matte Bronze, are stabilized by their surface treatment and stay put. Either way, no bad surprises: a patina won't turn green, a stable finish stays exactly as it was. And if you ever want to refresh or change a patina, we'll take the piece back into the workshop.

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.

Yes, for everyday use: kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, office. Cast in metal, the material doesn't warp, doesn't break under normal pulling, and withstands everyday knocks. We archive the 3D model of every piece: even years from now, we can remake one identically.

Yes, at 80%. Bronze: our pieces are cold cast from 80% pure metal powder, in a mold taken from a master we 3D print at the atelier in Paris. The shine, the weight in hand, the feel of the material: everything behaves like solid metal, with a level of detail traditional casting can't achieve. Each piece is then sanded and finished by hand, patinated for the noble metals, brushed for aluminum.

Yes, and it's by design. The Antique Bronze finish is a living patina: it keeps evolving gently with time and light, gaining depth, which makes each handle a little unique. A soft cloth is enough for everyday care, no abrasive products needed. And if you'd rather lock in its current look, a colorless microcrystalline wax noticeably slows the evolution.

Classica Round 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. 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.

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.

Bronze, copper, and brass handle mild cleaners well and keep their patina thanks to the protective treatment applied in our atelier. A soft, damp cloth with a drop of mild soap covers everyday care, then a dry cloth to bring back the shine. Save diluted vinegar for occasional limescale spots only, never for routine cleaning. These patinated metals only get better with light, regular care.

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.
