Product Story
LAVI combines a smooth spherical knob with a rectangular backplate. The plate adds visual presence and protects the door surface from hand marks; the knob provides secure grip. Backplate dimensions are proportioned to read as deliberate architectural detail rather than purely functional hardware. Both knob and plate machined from solid brass.
Five finishes available. Satin brass brings warmth. Antique brass adds depth. Satin nickel offers cooler brightness. Matte black provides modern contrast. Unlacquered brass develops natural patina with daily touch.
Where it works best
- Period properties where backplate style is historically appropriate
- Internal doors requiring traditional knob hardware with added presence
- Bathrooms and bedrooms with privacy function
- Commercial interiors, hotels, offices, requiring durable, refined hardware
- Any door where the knob and plate combination suits the aesthetic
Complete set includes two door knobs, two backplates, latch mechanism (passage or privacy), and all fixings. Backplates mount flush to door; knobs fix through plates. Latch engineered for smooth, reliable operation. Standard backset; multiple options available. The combination of knob and plate creates strong visual statement while remaining functionally restrained. Built for decades of use.
Knob with architectural backplate. Added presence. Built for lasting operation.
Made Properly, Not Quickly
We work with specialist manufacturers who understand that hardware isn't just functional—it's the detail people notice. Some pieces are precision CNC-machined from solid brass billets. Others are sand-cast using traditional methods, then hand-finished to remove any imperfections.
The finishing process is where the real craft happens. Each piece passes through multiple stages—grinding, polishing, plating or patinating—before a final inspection under bright light. Finishes like unlacquered brass are left raw to age naturally. Lacquered finishes are sealed to preserve their original tone.
We don't hold stock. Every order is manufactured specifically for you, which means less waste and hardware that hasn't sat in a warehouse for months. It takes a little longer, but the quality is worth waiting for.
