Joseph Giles - Berenice solid brass door knob with reeded rose

With a nod toward the iconic Georgian beehive design, the Berenice door knob is a wonderfully tactile piece. Bringing subtle flourishes of texture to any scheme through its repeated ribbing on the sides and rose, its period looks are refined with a contemporary edge.

Georgian architecture is heralded for its use of symmetry and proportion, creating pleasing and harmonious motifs, like the wonderful beehive shape; a classic design of this time. While ornament was encouraged, it was done so with restraint, allowing the symmetry of the periods designs to flourish predominantly. However, we invite you to let the Berenice door knob be the special ornamental piece in your design scheme; unique enough to make a statement, small enough to sit subtly within its surroundings. The perfect Georgian balance.

For unswerving modernity, we suggest the polished chrome, polished nickel and brushed nickel finishes. To keep things traditional, the mid-antique brass waxed, and dark bronze waxed finishes have a warm patina that will continue to age and wear beautifully with use.

Created with Joseph Giles typical unwavering attention to detail and made with the highest quality brass, Joseph Giles meticulous quality control ensures that it is not only a thing of beauty but a tactile and functional finishing touch to any room.

Joseph Giles locks & latches are available in light, medium, and heavy-sprung options. To ensure the best performance for this door knob design, we recommend using a light-sprung latch.
