Description

Uovo - the door handle for timeless design

The Uovo pair of door handles, designed in 1957, aptly embodies the timeless elegance of Italian design, at the crossroads of sculpture and functionality. Its name, which means "egg" in Italian, sums up the essence of its form: a gentle, egg-shaped curve, perfectly balanced, evoking both natural simplicity and geometric perfection. Conceived at a time when ornamentation was giving way to purity of line, Uovo is distinguished by its discreet yet sculptural presence, ideal for sublimating both modern architecture and more classical settings.

Technically avant-garde for its time, this door handle is made of solid brass using a shell-molding method with a sand core. This process produces a hollow handle, lightening the weight while retaining remarkable sturdiness. Ergonomics are no exception: the oval shape fits perfectly in the hand, ensuring a fluid, intuitive, almost sensual grip.

The Uovo pair of door handles is available in a wide range of refined finishes, from classic glossy or satin chrome, making it remarkably adaptable to different interior styles. Whether accentuating a minimalist door or enhancing a sophisticated interior, it becomes an assertive architectural detail, bringing a touch of modernity without ostentation.

Inside, a torsion spring system ensures smooth automatic return, guaranteeing excellent durability in use. Uovo is more than just a beautiful object: it's a concentrate of technology, ergonomics and elegance that has stood the test of time without losing its relevance. A true archetype of the modern handle, it expresses both the refinement of craftsmanship and the rigor of industrial innovation.

For further information:

The black-finish handle has fine rosettes for the L key rosette and condemnation version (diameter: 51mm), but the Y key rosette version has a thick rosette (diameter: 47mm).  

The white-finish handle has thin rosettes for the L key rosette and condemnation version (diameter: 51mm), but the Y key rosette version has a thick rosette (diameter: 47mm).
