Pair of 1940s Brass Door Handles

Inspired by the Bauhaus movement, the 1940 door handle set stands out for its segmented geometry, where function dictates form. Its cylindrical lever—a symbol of the industrial era—meets a rounded elbow, creating a striking visual contrast. This silhouette is supported by a round rosette that reinforces the piece’s sculptural and robust appearance. It is a centerpiece for interiors seeking architectural precision and timeless sophistication.

Description

1940 – The Iconic Door Handle

A true tribute to the aesthetics of the 1940s, the 1940 door handle set embodies the very essence of the Bauhaus movement, in which every structural component is designed to reflect its utilitarian purpose. Its visual identity is based on strict geometric segmentation, marking a clear departure from the ornamental curves of traditional hardware.

The object’s design is structured around a powerful visual contrast between two geometric elements: the operating lever and its base. The handle takes the form of a flawless cylinder, a tubular shape emblematic of industrial modernity and a commitment to absolute simplicity. This sharp transition from curves to straight lines infuses the design with a dynamic architectural energy, transforming a functional accessory into a true work of technical sculpture.

The handle comes with backplates and locking options, including L-keys, Y-keys, or a deadbolt. A 7-mm-thick door spindle is also included to ensure easy and worry-free installation.
