Hand Forged Door Pull Handle with Twisted Grip, 10 Inch

Crafted Design and a Firm Grip

This pull handle is crafted from a single piece of solid cast iron. Its central grip section is decorated with deep, spiral grooves that not only look fantastic but also provide a secure and comfortable hold. The handle is finished at both ends with decorative, spear-point mounting plates, each with a single fixing hole. The entire surface has a rustic, blackened patina.

Ideal for Solid Doors and Gates

This handle is ideal for large and heavy doors where a solid grip is needed. It's perfectly suited for sliding barn doors, a solid entrance gate, or a cellar door. You can also use it as a robust handle on a large chest, on the doors of a heavy wardrobe, or even as a horizontal grab bar on a hallway wall.

A Nod to the Blacksmith's Art

The twisted grip is not just a modern design element but a nod to one of the oldest blacksmithing techniques. Twisting a square bar of iron was a way for a smith to demonstrate their mastery and to breathe life and dynamism into a simple piece of metal. Handles like this adorned the gates of castles, the doors of inns, and the furniture in manor houses, and were a sign of high-quality craftsmanship.

A Fascinating Fact from History

Did you know that in many ancient cultures, the threshold of a doorway was considered a sacred place, home to spirits? To step on the threshold was to bring bad luck. This belief led to traditions like carrying a bride over the threshold, to prevent her from stumbling and bringing misfortune to the new home. A distinctive and solid handle like this symbolically opens that important transitional space.
