Lever handle + vertical pull handle on a polished iron backplate BECDF

THE HANDLE’S HIGHLIGHTS

The BECDF iron lever handle on a long backplate has an original, old-fashioned style. This collection suits rustic interiors and evokes a sense of nostalgia.

This beautiful handle is cast in three finishes: black, polished iron and waxed rust. The finishes and material preserve the piece’s authentic, warm appearance.

Complete your handle set with its matching lock roses. You’ll find them at the bottom of the product page.

Dauby, a Belgian foundry

Dauby makes its handles to order in Belgium across two collections. Création du Fer, to which this model belongs, is made entirely of solid iron: each piece is cast in a sand mould and then finished by hand. It comes in three finishes: polished iron, black (aged iron) and waxed rust. Inspired by the latches of old farmhouses, its authentic designs suit both characterful homes and more contemporary interiors where wood takes centre stage. PURE, the other collection, uses the same traditional techniques to create clean lines inspired by the Bauhaus, in white bronze, raw bronze, raw metal or aged iron.

Care

The iron finishes are lacquered or varnished. No coating is completely scratch-resistant: a ring, a sharp object or everyday use will leave its mark – and that is what gives the piece its character. If the black lacquer is damaged, it can be touched up with RAL 9005. The waxed rust finish is deliberately rough and grainy: do not polish it; care for it with beeswax or petroleum jelly. Never use an abrasive cleaner.
