Gio Ponti Brass Door Handle Art Deco 1930s Italian Midcentury Architecture 1940s

About the Item

This is an amazing brass door handle from the late 1930s, imported from a Milanese apartment. Its attributed to Gio Ponti but it also echoes references of Timo Sarpaneva, Ilmari Tapiovaara. The handle’s gently curved lever features a series of parallel ridges that run along its top surface, creating both a distinctive visual pattern and a secure, comfortable grip. The door handle has the expected 70 plus year old patina and it would look great if you have that one door that just needs such a piece. This may be a walk in wardrobe, a bathroom or just for your collection! Easy to install. This rare architectural piece embodies the innovative spirit and elegance that defined Gio Ponti’s work, making it both a functional and highly collectible treasure for design enthusiasts.
