SOLITAIRE
A tribute to the ancient Greek belief that diamonds are fragments of fallen stars, the new Solitaire cabinet knob from Haute Déco takes its name from the revolutionary prong setting invented by the house of Tiffany in 1886.
LODGE: SCULPTURAL PULLS INSPIRED BY THE RUGGEDNESS OF TIMBER
Haute Deco’s sculptural Lodge pulls are a new take on the concept of decorative hardware inspired by Nature. Freeform and organic in shape and texture, they have a monolithic sculptural quality that harks back to a sense of the primitive.
The set is made up of three handle: a smaller one for drawers and furniture; a larger one for wardrobes and a more substantial handle for Push-Pull doors. Each piece is freeform and looks quite different depending on the angle from which it is approached

Lodge handles are seemingly rough-hewn yet utterly sophisticated. They capture the rough beauty of the rugged, much like in the Shibusa Japanese school. Though it may seem counter-intuitive, the Lodge collection is at its freshest satin gold, where the jewel quality of the finish contrasts with the organic nature of the design and texture.
CARAT DOOR HANDLE, THE NEW LEVER HANDLE BY HAUTE DECO
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.
