Pair of Italian Brass Handles, 1950s
A pair of Italian brass handles from the 1950s, with open geometric pulls that give everyday hardware an unexpectedly graphic presence.
Each handle forms an elongated, angular loop, its broad outer edge turning inward to a narrow mounting plate. A closely spaced series of raised ribs marks the point where the pull meets the plate, bringing texture to the spare design. The two pieces mirror one another, creating a balanced composition when placed on adjoining cabinet doors.
The brass has a warm, gently varied finish, with signs of age visible across the surfaces. The reverse bears the embossed word “BREVETTATO,” Italian for “patented,” a detail that offers a glimpse into the handles’ original manufacture. Mounting holes are visible at either end of each backplate.
On a cabinet or pair of doors, the handles would add both a useful grip and a strong architectural line. Their appeal lies in how little material it takes to make an impression: an open outline, a ribbed detail, and the warmth of aged brass.
