Rustic Cast Iron Cabinet Knob - Square Floral, 1.3"

Breathe New Life Into Your Home

This pull is perfect for solid wood furniture but is also well-suited for metal elements or for restoring antique pieces. It will look stunning on dressers, cupboards, kitchen cabinets, chests, and nightstands. While its design is inspired by the past, its simple yet ornate style allows it to blend seamlessly into various interior designs—from rustic, farmhouse, and vintage to ethno, boho, and even interiors with medieval or Victorian-inspired elements.

The Legacy of Honest Craftsmanship

Decorative metal hardware on furniture has a long history. While ornate hardware was once the preserve of the wealthy and made by hand, the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century introduced the technology of iron casting. This made it possible to produce ornate and complex shapes, like this knob, in large quantities and at a more affordable price. Cast iron elements thus became a hallmark of the Victorian era, adorning everything from furniture to architecture. This knob is a modern interpretation that carries the spirit of this historic craft.

Did You Know...?

In the 19th century, cast iron literally revolutionized design and architecture. It enabled the mass production of intricate decorative elements that were previously extremely expensive and time-consuming to create. As a result, ornamental details once reserved for noble estates could appear in middle-class homes—from decorative fences and balcony railings to small details like these very furniture knobs.

Installation and Care

How to Install the Knob

Installation is very straightforward. If a hole is not already present on your furniture, drill one at the desired location. Insert a screw of the appropriate length from the inside of the door or drawer and fasten the knob onto it from the outside. Tighten it firmly, but with care to avoid damaging your furniture.

How to Care for the Knob

To maintain its original beauty, simply wipe the knob regularly with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. To revive and enhance the finish, you can occasionally apply a small amount of linseed or mineral oil with a cloth and polish the handle.

What to Avoid

Never use abrasive materials, steel wool, or harsh chemical cleaners, as these could permanently damage and scratch the blackened surface. The knob is intended exclusively as furniture hardware—do not use it for other purposes, such as a wall hook for hanging heavy items.
