GEMMY DOOR HANDLE

GEMMY DOOR HANDLE

Desgined By Mario Mazzer and Giovanni Crosera

Door lever handle with rosette and escutcheon

The Gemmy handle evokes the curved and slightly rounded lines of large mooring cleats and the soft shapes of 1950s icons. Thanks to a technical innovation, it combines base and body in a single harmonious shape with a language that appears familiar and offers a tactile charm to the hand.
