Joseph Giles - Bennett Solid Brass Door Lever Handle With Round Rose

With its construction beginning in 1675, the Royal Observatory in Greenwich has a long and established history in a modern world of time zones and clocks. Commissioned by King Charles II, this observatory has a distinct royal heritage, with its famous time-ball fixture as a symbol of British pride and science. The Bennett is inspired by this feat, with its dome-like detail resting atop its handle; a mimicry of the famous Greenwich time-ball structure and telescopic dome. The ball joint, which is like a contemporary tree knot, is the focal point of the handle whilst the grip branches out to provide an organic and comfortable form for the hand, ensuring an ergonomically friendly handle. Although time waits for no man, the Bennett will remain a timeless and alluring artefact in your home for years to come.

Joseph Giles locks & latches are available in light, medium, and heavy-sprung options. To ensure the best performance for this lever handle design, we recommend using a heavy-sprung latch.
