It is hard to think of a door handle more deserving of being described as “door jewellery” than the Carat lever.

Inspired by the elegance of cut-crystal, Carat levers are an entirely new take on the concept of door handles.

The unusual shape being fashioned entirely of cristalle glass is made possible by the company’s specialist know-how with this material, developed at its workshop in Hampshire. Instead of having a metal mounting to which a glass tube is attached, Carat levers are cast entirely in cristalle glass around a jewellery-grade insert.

Beyond its unusual shape, the secret to this handle’s elegance lies in the cut-outs carved around the base. Like arrows rising up to the sky, they elevate the design, adding a further dose of elegance.

Carat levers can be ordered in pure translucent cristalle for a timeless look; or in any of the gemstone colours, where the cut-outs are at their best.

Cristalle glass is polished by hand in a total of seven stages to finer and finer grades. Hence the finish is tremendously soft, so that opening a door turns  into a real sensory experience.
