Brown & White porcelain finish
The rustic lever handles whose only material is brass, as is the case of the
Kilto model, stand out for their design and originality, fitting perfectly in
any environment depending on the finish applied to them. Within the Kilto
collection we find the rose, the escutcheon, the keyhole and the pullhandle,
which were conceived to complement the lever handle and thus provide
any room with great harmony. Although brown is the most commonly
selected finish, antique silver, satin or polished bronze and antique brass are
equally adaptable to these environments. As a whole, they can be perfectly
combined with other materials such as porcelain or ebony wood.
The use of these materials, particularly
porcelain, adds a delicate touch to classic
and rustic designs, as is the case with Dev
or Bel.la lever handle designs. Moreover, the
porcelain used is not limited to white but,
in order to blend in with the environment,
Groël uses ivory-toned porcelain in both
models. In the case of the Bel.la lever
handle and its matching doorknob, the
variety of porcelain is even more extensive
and can go from a uniform beige to blue
craquelé.
Warm and cosy atmospheres with
a rustic character have always had
a certain charm, especially in the
Mediterranean. Wooden interiors
with a soft warm lighting, rustic
and robust furniture always give a
sense of peace and well-being.
Decorating these spaces with acces-
sories in brown tonalities, antique
silver, bronze or antique brass is
always a success. It brings a touch of
originality to any rustic space.
At Groël, the variety of existing styles and the desire
to adapt to any environment led to the creation of
rustic models in which, with brass as the primary
element, the finishes and other materials, merge to
create the perfect rustic lever handles.
