A letter, your finishes, a credit
One plate per finish, with a scrollwork relief that lets you read the patina in the grooves, and the finish name engraved. The plates sit in a matte black box slipped into an envelope: no package, no pickup point, straight to your mailbox.

The same materials, the same hands
Each plate is made from the material of the chosen finish, then hand-finished like a handle: cold-cast, sanded, and given a hand-applied patina for metals, bioresin for colors. The scrollwork relief shows how the patina settles into the hollows and lightens on the ridges. The finish name is engraved on each plate.
Living-patina finishes keep evolving with time and touch: your plate is one moment of that patina, the handle will be another.
Frequently asked questions
Find your handles
What Does the Sample Box Contain?
One swatch per finish selected, 3 x 5 cm and 5 mm thick, with a scrollwork relief and the finish name engraved. The swatches are set in a matte black box and shipped in an envelope, by tracked mail.
Are the Swatches True to the Handles?
Yes. They're made from the same material, using the same process, and finished by hand the same way: cold casting followed by sanding and patina for metals, printing in Bioresin for colors. The relief lets you see the patina settle into the recesses and the polish catch on the ridges, exactly as on a handle. Finishes with a living patina keep evolving: the swatch shows one moment of that patina.
How Many Finishes Can I Choose?
As many as you'd like, for the price of the box. We put together as many boxes as your selection requires, and everything ships in the same package.
Delivery, Customs, Payment, and Support
How Long Will It Take to Receive My Handles?
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.
How Does the Credit Toward My First Order Work?
The amount paid for the box becomes a discount code. You receive it in the order confirmation email, and you can find it again in the order details in your account. It's entered in the cart, used only once, with the same email address, within the time frame stated in the email. It doesn't apply to a new box.
How Long Does It Take for the Box to Arrive?
The plates are made in advance: the box ships quickly, by tracked letter, and you're notified by email as soon as it's sent. Then add your country's postal transit time.
Does the Box Ship Everywhere?
Yes, in France and abroad, by tracked letter, with shipping included in the price of the box. Outside the European Union, customs fees may apply depending on local regulations.
Are Your Payment Methods Secure? What Payment Options Do You Offer?
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).
Can I Return My Order if I Don't Like It?
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.
