Silhouette · Holdon Paris
Classica Round
A round classic silhouette with generous curves and a soft profile that welcomes the hand, a shape that crosses styles without ever aging. The most timeless version of the cabinet knob.
The character
The Oldest Form of Decorative Hardware
The Classica Round was born from an evident truth: some shapes have been perfect from the start.
The round knob is the oldest and most universal silhouette in furniture hardware. You'll find it on Louis XVI dressers, Art Deco sideboards, contemporary Scandinavian kitchens. Its longevity is no accident: the spherical form naturally fits the hand, and its rounded profile creates a soft play of shadow that flatters any finish.
The Classica Round takes up this fundamental geometry with carefully calibrated proportions: never too flat, never too prominent, a generous curve that adds volume without crowding the front. It's the silhouette you can place anywhere without a second thought, one that elevates whatever pattern it carries.

Silhouette, shape, and pattern
What's the Difference Between a Shape, a Silhouette, and a Pattern?
These three words describe three levels. Shape is the broad category: square, round, rectangle, oval, polygon, cylinder, figurative. The Classica Round silhouette is a precise variation within a shape, with its own proportions and character, for example the Palazzo Square within the square shape. Pattern, in turn, sits on top of the silhouette without changing its geometry: nothing (Essential), an ornamental decoration, or a sculptural figure in relief. A single silhouette can therefore host several patterns.
What Does the Classica Round Silhouette Bring, and How to Choose It?
The Classica Round silhouette is the overall line of the piece, its underlying shape, even before the pattern that dresses it. It sets the general style: choose a silhouette that speaks to the piece of furniture first, then decide on the pattern to layer on top. Think of it as the skeleton of the handle, with the pattern as its ornament. If the furniture is already busy, a quiet silhouette will settle it down; if it's understated, the silhouette can afford more presence.

Finishes and Collection
Can We Order a Finish from Another Collection for a Given Silhouette?
No. The finish palette is defined collection by collection: it's part of the visual signature, just like the silhouettes and patterns. The silhouette defines the handle's geometry, but it's the collection that sets the vocabulary of finishes available. If a particular finish catches your eye, start by checking which collection it belongs to: that's likely where you'll find the handle you need.
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.
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.
