Description
Uovo – the door handle that embodies timeless design
The Uovo door handle set, designed in 1957, perfectly embodies the timeless elegance of Italian design, at the intersection of sculpture and functionality. Its name, which means “egg” in Italian, perfectly captures the essence of its form: a gentle, perfectly balanced, ovoid curve that evokes both natural simplicity and geometric perfection. Conceived at a time when ornamentation gave way to clean lines, Uovo stands out for its understated yet sculptural presence, ideal for enhancing both modern architecture and more classical interiors.
Technically cutting-edge for its time, this door handle is made of solid brass using a sand-core shell-molding process. This process allows for the production of a hollow handle, reducing its weight while maintaining remarkable sturdiness. Its ergonomics are equally impressive: the oval shape fits perfectly in the hand, ensuring a fluid, intuitive, almost sensual grip.
The Uovo door handle set is available in a wide range of refined finishes, from classic polished or satin chrome, making it remarkably adaptable to a variety of interior styles. Whether used to highlight a minimalist door or enhance a sophisticated interior, it becomes a bold architectural detail, adding a touch of modernity without being ostentatious.
Inside, a torsion spring system ensures a smooth automatic return, guaranteeing excellent durability. Uovo is therefore not just a beautiful object: it is a fusion of technology, ergonomics, and elegance that has stood the test of time without losing its relevance. A true archetype of the modern handle, it embodies both the refinement of artisanal craftsmanship and the precision of industrial innovation.
For your information:
The black-finished handle features a thin escutcheon for the L-key escutcheon version with deadbolt (diameter: 51 mm), but the Y-key escutcheon version has a thick escutcheon (diameter: 47 mm).
The white-finished handle features a thin escutcheon for the L-key escutcheon version with a deadbolt (diameter: 51 mm), but the Y-key escutcheon version has a thick escutcheon (diameter: 47 mm).
