Balmoral centre doorknob The Balmoral centre doorknob takes its name and form from Balmoral Baths in Sydney's north — part of a collection of Handle & Kate pieces whose forms are i nfluenced by Sydney's ocean pools. At 120mm in diameter with a 90mm projection, the Balmoral is a centre doorknob — a form that sits at the heart of a door and is gripped rather than pulled. The dome is organic and slightly compressed, as though the hand has already been there — a traditional doorknob form made particular by the hand-forming process and the qualities of the clay. Fixed with a 100mm stainless steel coach bolt, it is designed as a single-sided fitting and is suited to front doors or any solid door construction. Slip cast on Gadigal & Bidjigal Country in Sydney from a local clay with porcelain qualities, each Balmoral centre doorknob is trimmed and finished by hand before being bisque fired, glazed and glaze fired in our studio. The hand-forming of each piece is visible in the finished object and facilitates a more tactile experience with use and time. Architects and designers frequently specify it for luxury residential front entries where the quality of the first touch sets the tone for the interior beyond. The Balmoral centre doorknob is available in eight glaze finishes, ranging from the gloss depth of Black Pearl and White Caps to the feel of satin matte glazes Salt Spray and Squid Ink Black. The sheer glazes — Lagoon, Deep Sea, Oyster and Crystal Clear — are particularly suited to entranceways where the clay body itself is part of the design intention, allowing the porcelain to read through the finish. All glazes are food safe and waterproof. Made to order in Sydney. Expect delivery six weeks from payment, plus courier time.
