Introducing Titanium: A New Finish Across Our Favourite Cabinet Knob Families

Some of your favourite cabinet knobs just got a moody, modern makeover. We've added a titanium finish across several of our best-loved solid brass knobs — the same trusted shapes and textures you already know, now available in a sleek, contemporary tone that brings an industrial edge to kitchens, bathrooms, and furniture alike. Every knob in this new titanium line-up shares the same DNA: they're all part of existing Handles Inc families (so you can still find them in satin brass, black, brushed bronze, and more) and they're all finished in titanium for a subtly dark, sophisticated look that pairs beautifully with both warm and cool palettes. Where they differ is in the details — size, silhouette, and texture. From fine knurling to smooth flat tops, here's a closer look at what's new.
