Joseph Giles - Contour solid brass door lever handle with inlay and round rose

A contemporary perspective on Renaissance art, this lever handle embodies the contrast between raw craftsmanship and refined design.

Its form echoes the chiseling tools used to shape stone and marble, while its soft, subtle curves offer a beautiful tactile experience and sophisticated aesthetic.

Inspired by Michelangelo’s era, the handle’s length—150.8mm—references the year he began work on the Sistine Chapel, with MDVIII engraved on the underside to honour this legacy.

The split finish design allows full customization: choose contrasting finishes for boldness or a single tone to highlight the intricate inlay surround. For a unique touch, opt for bespoke inlays such as marble or timber, creating a striking and personalized statement piece.

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