Each doorknob is painted a vibrant teal, at home in a world of bold walls and rich textiles. Painted by Hand - A pattern designer hand-draws the designs onto each knob, then a painter carefully brushes the nooks and crannies. Although the same pattern is used, the designs vary ever-so-slightly, the mark of a true handmade craft.
