The Sutton door handle from Heritage Brass embodies a timeless elegance, seamlessly blending classic design principles with meticulous craftsmanship. Its inspiration can be traced back to the mid-century modern movement, a period that championed clean lines, functional forms, and a harmonious integration of aesthetics and utility.
This design philosophy, famously articulated by Frank Lloyd Wright as "form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union," resonates deeply within the Sutton's simple yet refined silhouette. The handle's gracefully curved lever and rectangular backplate create a balanced and visually pleasing composition.
Crafted from solid brass, this handle is not merely functional; it's a tactile experience. The weight and feel of the solid brass in your hand underscore its quality. Traditional casting techniques, followed by careful machining and a meticulous polishing process, yield a handle that is not only durable and resistant to everyday wear and tear but also possesses a luminous sheen that enhances its aesthetic appeal.
The subtle curves and smooth finish of the Sutton make it a versatile choice, equally at home in traditional settings or complementing the clean lines of a modern interior. Its understated elegance makes it suitable for a wide array of applications, from period-style restorations to contemporary renovations.
The attention to detail, from the precisely positioned fixings to the perfectly polished surface, elevates the Sutton beyond a mere functional object to a statement piece, subtly yet confidently enriching the home it adorns. Its enduring style ensures that the Sutton will remain a cherished feature of any door for years to come.
Available in polished brass, polished chrome, and satin chrome.
